Where's hibernate gone in Windows7?

There's a little arrow to the right of "Shutdown" on the start menu that displays a context menu, and it should be an option in there (it is on my system).Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket? -
Create a new shortcut on your Start Menu with the following target: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /hComment

Create it on your desktop and then drag it across to your Start Menu.Comment

There are some suggestions that running the command "powercfg /hibernate on" from an elevated command prompt might do the trick.Last edited by voodooflux; 7 May 2010, 07:57.Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?Comment

Have you got hibernate enabled?

It's amazing what you can find with search engines:
How To: Enable Or Disable Hibernate Option In Windows 7Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

I have found that. But I always get:You do not have permission to enable or disable the Hibernate feature.
And I still haven't found why it's not enabled by default? What's special or exotic about it?
In other news, I have managed to actually set my keyboard sleep kep to enter hibernation which is good, but I still want it on the shutdown menu where it belongs!Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
