Disable hiberfile.sys
hiberfile.sys is a huge file normally found in your Windows root directory. Normally it’s a file 75% size of your total amount of RAM. So if you have 32GB installed, you’ll have a 24GB hiberfile.sys file sitting there taking up space for no reason.
If you can live without the hibernation feature (this is more the case for desktops – hibernation is actually quite useful for laptops) then you can disable the feature and remove the file with this simple DOS command:
powercfg.exe -h off
Just remember to launch theĀ command prompt and “Run As Administrator”.
