How to Remove Hibernation File

By Sami

If you do not use hibernation, make sure you do not have it enabled, which reserves disk space equal to your RAM. If you have a hidden file on the root directory of your C-drive called hiberfil.sys, hibernation is enabled.

To remove that file:

Go to Control Panel,
Power Options -> Hibernate tab,
and uncheck the Enable hibernation box.
