Recently bought a new laptop Asus TUF Gaming F15. Problem that i am facing is that after i put my laptop to sleep, it automatically shuts down after an hour or so(it basically hibernates). Tried to change the time after which hibernate occurs, but couldn't find those in advanced settings.

Advanced settings :

powercfg/a :

    See if there is a Hybrid Suspend setting. I turned this OFF on my Lenovo Laptop and allow Suspend to run until I wake it up. I have tested overnight suspend

  • Na there isnt a setting like that. Any other suggestions? Nov 16, 2022 at 18:06
  • You will need to ask ASUS Supply for a way to separate suspend and hibernate

  • To disable hibernation, if that's your wish, run Command Prompt as Administrator and enter the following command: powercfg.exe /hibernate off. This will also disable Fast startup.

Your Power Options is missing the "Hibernate after" option. You can force-add the option back with this command in an elevated command prompt:

REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\9d7815a6-7ee4-497e-8888-515a05f02364 /v Attributes /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f

This may need a reboot to take effect.

Source : Add or Remove Hibernate after from Power Options in Windows.


If the "Hibernate after" option did not help or work, you may disable hibernation totally : Run Command Prompt as Administrator and enter the following command:

powercfg.exe /hibernate off

Note that this will also disable Fast startup.


If you don't wish to disable Fast startup, you could, instead of disabling hibernation totally, to set the hibernation file to a format that supports Fast startup but not hibernation.

See the article How to Specify Hiberfile Type as Full or Reduced in Windows 10, where is described how to set the hibernation file to either of the following formats:

Full = Supports being able to enable hibernate and turn on fast startup (hiberboot). The hiberfile (C:\hiberfil.sys) will be 40% of physical RAM installed on your computer. Hibernate is available to be added to the power menu.

Reduced = Only supports being able to turn on fast startup (hiberboot) without hibernate. The hiberfile (C:\hiberfil.sys) will be 20% of physical RAM installed on your computer. Removes hibernate from the power menu.

This is done in an elevated command prompt by the following two commands:

powercfg /h /type reduced
powercfg /h /type full
