Should You Shut Down, Sleep, or Hibernate Your Laptop?
From HTG Computers can sleep, hibernate, or shut down. Sleep allows you to quickly resume using your laptop at the cost of some electricity. Hibernate is like shutting down your computer, but you can still resume working where you left off. There’s no right answer in all situations. Some people leave their computers running 24/7, while others shut down computers the moment they step away. Each of these options has its advantages and disadvantages. Image Credit: DeclanTM on Flickr Shut Down vs. Sleep vs. Hibernate Each of the three power-down states appears to shut off your computer, but they all work differently.
When To Shut Down, Sleep, and Hibernate Different people treat their computers differently. Some people always shut down their computers and never take advantage of the convenience of the sleep and hibernate states, while some people run their computers 24/7.
Hibernate is particularly useful to save battery power on laptops that aren’t plugged in. if you want to take your laptop somewhere and you don’t want to waste valuable battery power, you’ll want to hibernate it instead of putting it to sleep. Making Your Choice Once you’ve made your choice, you can control what happens when you press the power button on your computer or close the lid on your laptop. To do so, press the Windows key, type Power buttons, and press Enter. You’ll see the power button options in the Windows Control Panel. (On Windows 8, you’ll need to click the Settings option on the search screen after typing Power buttons.) You can modify your computer’s power-saving options to control what it does automatically when you’ve left it idle. Thanks to Geek Chris Hoffman
