Windows Does Not Start After Sleep

Information
There seem to be quite a few people with this problem, so I wrote this tutorial to quickly solve it. This is a problem with the Sleep mode that desktop computers use. Normally, Sleep is the only option, and Hibernate is not available to desktops. The problem appears to be caused by the Hybrid Sleep option (this simply sets the computer to sleep, but stores a hibernate file in case of a power loss). This tutorial will show you how to both enable Hibernate, as well as fix this problem.




Lets get started!

1) Open up Power Options by either searching for it from the start menu, or through the Control Panel
2) Select whichever Power Plan you use, and select Change Plan Settings

3) Make sure that the Sleep option is set to never, then click on Change Advanced Power Settings
4) Scroll down to the Sleep options, and Change "Allow hybrid sleep" to OFF

5) Select OK, then Save Changes. You are all finished!

Tip
Please make sure to test this, and let me know if this does not work for you! I hope you like the tutorial, and I hope it fixed your problem!
