How do I move the hibernation file?

Hobbes · 2002-11-08 16:00:53

I want to enable Hibernation but it's taking up close to 1GB and I don't want that much space taken up on my C: drive. How do I move it to another drive?

ISTR you

1. Ensure the other drive is fully defragged
2. Enable hibernation first
3. A hidden dir is created with a big file, note the path

...like c:\windows\hibernate\hiber.sys

now search registry for hiber.sys (start run regedit)

change path to d:\hiber.sys

reboot
