How to Add Hibernate Option in Windows 8/8.1 Power Menu

Go to the Start screen and type: power options
Select: Change what the power buttons do from the list of results that displays.

The Settings window will open on the desktop. From there, click Change settings that are currently unavailable.

Then scroll down and, under the Shutdown settings section, check Hibernate Show In Power Menu. Click Save changes.

That’s all there is to it. Now when you click the Power button, Hibernate will be an option on the menu.

In fact, Hibernate will be added to all of the shutdown options in Windows 8/8.1. It’ll even be available when you right-click the new Start Button to Shut Down in Windows 8/8.1. Pretty handy.

Or if you shut down Windows 8.1 the old school way — by using the keyboard shortcut Alt + F4 it’ll still show up.
