Is Hybrid Sleep on Windows 7 the same as on Windows Vista? Xcom 2 gene mods.
As I understand it so far, it is like sleep, except the content of the RAM is also saved onto the hard drive, so when there is power loss or power outage, the state of the computer is not lost.
Will that involve saving all the RAM to the hard drive? So if my computer has 6 GB or 9 GB or even 12 GB, will that involve saving 12 GB of data to hard drive?

Is Hybrid Sleep on Windows 7 the same as on Windows Vista?
Kio's Adventure is a game about having a good life with positive outcomes. Playthrough will contain all cgs and secret rooms as they appear in order. Still trying to comprehend how to acquire these. So I'm assuming I beat the game because the credits rolled. Deleted Monika'a file, started over with the three girls, Sayori acted weird, then credits of some CGs being deleted happened along with a song. This will be a compilation of all the Yuri CG's within the game by going through her route. These are found within the original game of DDLC, Credit goes to Team Salvato for creating these pieces of art. Doki doki all cgs. However all guides mention getting CG's without explaing what a CG is. So what is a CG. Doki Doki Literature Club. All Discussions Screenshots Artwork Broadcasts.
In a word, yes.
In Hybrid Sleep mode, the system saves any open documents and programs to memory and to your hard disk, and then puts your computer into a low-power state as in normal Sleep/Standby state.
An advantage of hybrid sleep is that if a power failure occurs, Windows can restore your work from your hard disk. If a power failure such as a power outage occurs when your work is saved only to memory (as in Sleep mode), all work is lost.
In Hyrid Sleep mode, if the computer suddenly loses power, users can still recover to the last working state as when the computer enters hybrid sleep mode, because all data in memory is saved in the hiberfil.sys hibernation file. In this case, the computer is acting exactly the same with hibernation mode to resume computer activity and yet still enjoy the benefit of fast return to full operation from Sleep mode.

Yes, it the same in Windows 7 as in Windows Vista. It's really sleep plus what Windows calls hibernation, which is where the contents of RAM is written to the hard drive.
So yes, it will involve written everything in RAM to the hard drive. If you look on the root of your C drive (if hidden files are displayed) you'll see Hyperfil.sys is the same size as your physical RAM. Although I assume Windows is smart enough that it only copies the RAM that is actively in use to the hard drive.

A few more words on that RAM usage.
I've read somewhere that
hiberfil.sys
file is usually 75% of your RAM size. It's a reserved space, so it's actually locked all the time. Of course Windows would normally write to disk only the contents of RAM (which you can easily check by openening Task Manager with CtrlAltDel and going to Performance tab), so you might want to check a few (dozens) times how much memory is used during your normal work (or at the state you might put your computer to sleep) and reduce the hiberfil.sys
size. Read more here: Change Size of hiberfil.sys File Postal 2 mod menu.

If you are targeting Windows 7/2008 Server then you can use WMI and the Win32_PowerSetting class. Below is code that does that. Make sure to add an assembly reference and

Using procmon, I managed to work out that the following registry key is responsible for it on my machine.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlPowerPowerSettings238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F2094ac6d29-73ce-41a6-809f-6363ba21b47e
You'll probably have to do some research on your machine to see how it works for you.
You can also call on the powercfg utility to do this. Each power setting is identified by three things:
- GUID of power profile
- GUID of profile subgroup
- GUID of setting
You can use
powercfg -QUERY
to produce a full list of values.Once you've got the GUID of the profile you want to edit, the GUID of the subgroup (in this case the Sleep subgroup) and the GUID of the setting (Allow Hybrid Sleep) you can use either
powercfg -SETACVALUEINDEX
for plugged in or powercfg -SETDCVALUEINDEX
for on battery to set the value.In my case (Win7 Ultimate x64) you can turn it off using:
powercfg -SETACVALUEINDEX 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e 238c9fa8-0aad-41ed-83f4-97be242c8f20 94ac6d29-73ce-41a6-809f-6363ba21b47e 1
This translates to the AcSettingIndex value in:
