Shut down, sleep, or hibernate your PC

Windows 11 Windows 10 Windows 8.1 Windows 7 More...Less

There are many ways to shut down your PC—you can turn the PC off completely, you can make it sleep, or you can hibernate the PC.

Windows 11Windows 10Windows 8.1Windows 7

Turn your PC off completely

To shut down, select Start  and then select Power  > Shut down.

Sleep

Sleep uses very little power, your PC starts up faster, and you’re instantly back to where you left off. You don’t have to worry that you'll lose your work because of your battery draining because Windows automatically saves all your work and turns off the PC if the battery is too low. Use Sleep when you’re going to be away from your PC for just a little while—like when you’re taking a coffee break.

For a lot of PCs (especially laptops and tablets), your PC goes to sleep when you close your lid or press the power button.

To set your PC so it goes to sleep when you close the lid or press the power button:

Select Search on the taskbar, type control panel, and select it from the results.

Select System and Security.

In the Power Options section, select Change what the power buttons do.

Select Change settings that are currently unavailable.

Select options based on how you want Sleep to work:

For a laptop, expand the list for When I close the lid in the On battery column and select Sleep. Repeat for the Plugged in column, if desired.

For a desktop, tablet, or laptop, expand the list for When I press the power button in the On battery column and select Sleep. Repeat for the Plugged in column, if desired.

Select Save changes.

When you’re ready to make your PC sleep, just press the power button on your desktop, tablet, or laptop, or close your laptop’s lid.

On most PCs, you can resume working by pressing your PC's power button. However, not all PCs are the same. You might be able to wake it by pressing any key on the keyboard, clicking a mouse button, or opening the lid on a laptop. Check the documentation that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer's website.

Hibernate

This option was designed for laptops and might not be available for all PCs. (For example, PCs with InstantGo don't have the hibernate option.) Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, you’re back to where you left off (though not as fast as sleep).

Use hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop or tablet for an extended period and won't have an opportunity to charge the battery during that time. First check to see if this option is available on your PC and if it is, turn it on.

To set your PC so it hibernates:

Select Search on the taskbar, type control panel, and select it from the results.

Select System and Security.

In the Power Options section, select Change what the power buttons do.

Select Change settings that are currently unavailable.

In the Shutdown settings section, select Hibernate.

Select Save changes.

Now you’ll be able to hibernate your PC in a few different ways:

Select Start , and then select Power  > Hibernate.

Press the Windows logo key + X on your keyboard, and then select Shut down or sign out > Hibernate.

Note: If devices connected to your PC (like monitors, printers, or scanners) aren't working properly after waking up from sleep or hibernate, you might need to disconnect and reconnect your device or restart your PC. You should also make sure that you have the most current drivers for all of your devices.

Turn your PC off completely

To shut down, select Start  and then select Power  > Shut down.

Sleep

Sleep uses very little power, your PC starts up faster, and you’re instantly back to where you left off. You don’t have to worry that you'll lose your work because of your battery draining because Windows automatically saves all your work and turns off the PC if the battery is too low. Use Sleep when you’re going to be away from your PC for just a little while—like when you’re taking a coffee break.

For a lot of PCs (especially laptops and tablets), your PC goes to sleep when you close your lid or press the power button.

To set your PC so it goes to sleep when you close the lid or press the power button:

Open power options—select Start , then select Settings  > System  > Power & sleep  > Additional power settings.

Do one of the following:

If you’re using a desktop, tablet, or laptop, select Choose what the power buttons does. Next to When I press the power button, select Sleep, and then select Save changes.

If you’re using only a laptop, select Choose what closing the lid does. Next to When I close the lid, select Sleep, and then select Save changes.

When you’re ready to make your PC sleep, just press the power button on your desktop, tablet, or laptop, or close your laptop’s lid.

On most PCs, you can resume working by pressing your PC's power button. However, not all PCs are the same. You might be able to wake it by pressing any key on the keyboard, clicking a mouse button, or opening the lid on a laptop. Check the documentation that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer's website.

To hibernate your PC:

Open power options—select Start , then select Settings  > System  > Power & sleep  > Additional power settings.

Select Choose what the power button does, and then select Change settings that are currently unavailable. Under Shutdown settings, select the Hibernate checkbox (if it's available), and then select Save changes.

Now you’ll be able to hibernate your PC in a few different ways:

Select Start , and then select Power  > Hibernate.

Press the Windows logo key + X on your keyboard, and then select Shut down or sign out > Hibernate.

Note: If devices connected to your PC (like monitors, printers, or scanners) aren't working properly after waking up from sleep or hibernate, you might need to disconnect and reconnect your device or restart your PC. You should also make sure that you have the most current drivers for all of your devices.

Turn your PC off completely

To shut down Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1, move your mouse to the lower left-hand corner of the screen and right-click Start  or press the Windows logo key + X on your keyboard. Tap or select Shut down or sign out and choose Shut down.

Sleep

Sleep uses very little power, your PC starts up faster, and you’re instantly back to where you left off. You don’t have to worry that you'll lose your work because of your battery draining because Windows automatically saves all your work and turns off the PC if the battery is too low. Use Sleep when you’re going to be away from your PC for just a little while—like when you’re taking a coffee break.

For a lot of PCs (especially laptops and tablets), your PC goes to sleep when you close your lid or press the power button.

To set your PC so it goes to sleep when you close the lid or press the power button:

Open power options—swipe in from the edge of the screen, tap Search (or if you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then select Search), type Power options in the search box, and then tap or select Power options.

Do one of the following:

If you’re using a desktop, tablet, or laptop, select Choose what the power buttons do. Next to When I press the power button, select Sleep, and then select Save changes.

If you’re using only a laptop, select Choose what closing the lid does. Next to When I close the lid, select Sleep, and then select Save changes.

Key Takeaways

Shutting down your Windows 11 PC can be done in multiple ways, including using the physical power button on your device or through software-guided shutdown options.

Clicking on the power icon in the Start menu or using the power user menu by right-clicking the Start button are convenient ways to initiate the standard shutdown process.

You can also shut down your PC using keyboard shortcuts like Alt+F4 or through the Command Prompt by entering the "shutdown /s" command. Additionally, the Ctrl+Alt+Delete screen and the login screen provide options to power off your PC.

Want to shut down your Windows 11 PC? There are several ways to do it. All of them work equally well, so pick the one that suits you the best.

Press the Power Button on Your PC or Tablet

No surprise here: It's perfectly OK to turn off your PC using a physical power button on your device. The power button is located in the top left or top right corner of the keyboard on the overwhelming majority of laptops.

In general, pushing the button once will either put the PC to sleep or begin an automatic shutdown process. You can change this behavior in Control Panel if you'd like. Or you could use one of the software-guided shutdown options listed below.

If your PC becomes completely unresponsive, you can usually force it to power off by holding down the power button for 5-10 seconds. This should only be done in emergencies, however, because forcing a shutdown carries a slight risk of data loss. (But don't worry; if you regularly press your PC's power button once to shut down, that's perfectly OK.)

Use the Power Button in Start

Another handy way to shut down your Windows 11 PC is by clicking Start in your taskbar. When the Start menu opens, click the power icon near the bottom of the menu (that looks like a circle with a vertical line near the top). In the menu that appears, select "Shut Down." Your PC will begin the standard shutdown process.

Right-Click the Start Button

You can also shut down from the "power user menu" that appears when you right-click the Start button. When the menu pops up, select "Shut Down or Sign Out," then click "Shut Down."

Press Alt-F4

If all your windows are closed or minimized (and you're looking at the desktop), you can initiate a shutdown by pressing Alt+F4 on your keyboard. A "Shut Down Windows" window will appear. Select shutdown in the drop-down menu (usually selected by default), then click "OK" or hit Enter. Windows will shut down as usual.

Use the Command Line to Shut Off Your PC

You can also shut down from the PowerShell or Command Prompt. To do so, launch Windows Terminal (search "terminal" in Start) and type shutdown /s on a blank line, then hit Enter. A warning pop-up will appear telling you that Windows is about to shut down, and after a minute, your PC will power off completely.

Use the Ctrl+Alt+Delete or Login Screen

If all those options weren't enough, you can also turn off your PC from the Ctrl+Alt+Delete screen. Just press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on your keyboard, and when the black full-screen menu appears, click the power icon in the lower-right corner of the screen and select "Shut Down" in the list.

You can also shut down your PC in a similar way from the login screen (or launch Task Manager), which also contains a nearly identical power icon in the same location. And once your Windows 11 PC is turned off, here's how to turn it back on.

Published Jun 22, 2021

There comes a time in every PC's life when it must shut down. Today's the big day.

When it comes time to turn off a Windows 10 PC, you might not know the best way to do it. But there's more than one way to shut down your computer, and we'll show you six different methods that do the trick.

Press a Physical Power Button

Perhaps the easiest way to turn off your Windows PC is by pushing its physical power button. Long ago, you always had to shut down Windows within the software itself before flipping your PC's power switch so that you didn't lose any data. These days, PC power buttons are wired to send a signal to the operating system to begin a shutdown process when you push them. (They can also be configured to perform another option, such as putting your PC to sleep.)

The only catch is that the power button on many laptops doesn't usually shut down the machine---instead, it often puts the laptop to sleep or turns off the display. If that's the case, you might be better off using a shutdown option in Windows as listed below.

Click the Power Icon in the Start Menu

Within Windows itself, the most obvious way to shut down your PC comes courtesy of the Start menu. To use it, first, click the Start button, which is the button with the Windows logo on it in the corner of your screen.

In the Start menu that pops up, select the power icon (a circle with a small vertical line intersecting its top) in the left side of the menu. Next, click "Shut Down" in the small secondary menu that appears. After a moment, all apps will close, and the PC will power off.

Right-Click the Start Menu

You can also shut down your Windows PC from a hidden menu that pops up if you right-click the Start menu or press Windows+X on your keyboard. Some people call this the "Power User Menu."

After bringing up the menu, select "Shut Down or Sign Out," and then choose "Shut Down" from the sub-menu. There's no particular advantage to shutting down this way, but at least you know that it's an option.

Shut Down from the Ctrl+Alt+Delete or Login Screen

If you press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on your keyboard, a special screen will appear that allows you to launch Task Manager, switch users, and more. You can turn off your PC from here, too. In the lower-right corner of the screen, click the power icon (a circle with a line in it) and select "Shut Down" in the menu.

You'll find a similar power button in the same location on the login screen (where you sign in to Windows). Click the power button and select "Shut Down" in the menu.

Click the Desktop and Press Alt+F4

In Windows, the keyboard shortcut Alt+F4 usually closes the currently active window. But if you click the Desktop (or minimize all windows) and press Alt+F4, a special "Shut Down Windows" box will appear. In the drop-down menu, select "Shut Down" (although it's usually selected by default), and then click "OK." Your PC will shut down after that.

Shut Down from the Command Prompt

If you prefer to do things from the Windows Command Prompt, you can shut down from there as well. First, open the Start menu and type "Command," and then hit Enter to launch the command prompt. With the prompt open, type

shutdown /s

at the prompt and press Enter. You'll see a warning pop-up that lets you know that Windows is about to shut down. After a minute, Windows will shut down fully and your PC will power off.

Believe it or not, there are even more ways to shut down Windows than this, but the options above should cover most situations. And once your computer has completely turned off, here's how to turn it back on.

How to Shut Down and Restart in Windows 11

Windows 11 offers several different ways to shut down or restart your computer.

June 1, 2022 4:00 a.m. PT 2 min read When it's time to turn off your Windows 11 device, you have more than one option. Sarah Tew/CNET Leaving your PC on all the time might be convenient, but you should still shut it down roughly once a week. Turning your computer off gives it a chance to close out of background processes that can accumulate over time and drain your PC's performance.  Shutting down also gives your computer's components -- such as its cooling system -- a chance to rest. Just like any other machine, computers can break if they run nonstop for too long. Sleep mode helps minimize that risk, but your computer can still benefit from a complete shutdown from time to time. Restarting your PC is sometimes required to apply important updates, including security patches, which is why you should shut down or restart every week or so. Here are a few of the ways to turn off or restart your PC in Windows 11.How to shut down and restart via taskbar1. Click the Start button on your taskbar. (The Start button looks like four squares.) 2. Click the circular power button in the bottom right of the Start menu.3. Then choose if you'd like to shut down your computer, restart it or put it to sleep.If you're all about efficiency, you can save a step when shutting down this way1. Right-click the Start button on your taskbar and mouse over Shut down or sign out2. Select Shut down, sleep, restart or sign out Right-clicking on the Start button is another way to shut down your PC. Screenshot/Adam Benjamin CNETHow to shut down and restart with shortcuts1. On your desktop press Alt + F4 (be warned: if you have a browser or other app open, this will instantly close the app). Windows will ask you whether you want to shut down, switch users, sign out, put your computer to sleep or restart your computer.2. Select your preferred option and then click OK. When you press Alt + F4 from the desktop, Windows 11 will ask you what you'd like to do. Screenshot/Adam Benjamin CNETYou can also use a classic combination to force a shutdown.1. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete simultaneously to pull up the options menu2. Click the circular power button in the bottom right corner of your screen3. Choose Sleep, Shut down or Restart

Shut down (turn off), sleep, or hibernate your PC

Shut down (turn off), sleep, or hibernate your PC

Shut down (turn off), sleep, or hibernate your PC

Watch a video about how to shut down (turn off) your PC. (To view captions in your language, tap or click the Closed captioning button .)

There are three ways to shut down your PC—you can turn the PC off completely, you can make it sleep, or you can hibernate the PC.

Turn off your PC completely

If you don't plan to use your PC for a while, you might want to turn it off completely. Before turning off your PC, close all open desktop apps—this will prompt you to save your work.

Some PCs have a power button ( ) on the Start screen. If your PC has a power button, tap or click it, and then tap or click Shut down.

Note

The power button won't appear on the Start screen for devices running Windows RT, most tablets that are able to wake up instantly (those that use InstantGo), tablets with screens smaller than 8.5", or if the hardware manufacturer has disabled the button.

If you don't see the power button on the Start screen, here's how to shut down:

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Settings.(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Settings.)

Tap or click Power, and then tap or click Shut down.

Here are some other ways to shut down your PC:

Show allShut down from the Start button

In Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1, there's a faster way to shut down desktops and laptops.

Move your mouse to the lower left-hand corner of the screen and right-click the Start button or press Windows logo key +X on your keyboard.

Tap or click Shut down or sign out and choose Shut down.

Note

If you're on the desktop, you can also shut down using touch. Press and hold the Start button on the bottom left-corner of the screen, tap Shut down or sign out, and choose Shut down.

Shut down PCs with InstantGo

With InstantGo, your PC wakes up instantly from sleep with your apps and data up to date. Your experience can last all day with extended battery life so if you bought a Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 PC that came with InstantGo, there's really no need to shut down completely. If you want to, there's a quicker way to do that:

Press and hold the power button on your PC (about four seconds) until you see Slide to shut down your PC on the screen.

Then, swipe down or drag the lock screen down with your mouse.

If you change your mind, swipe up or drag the lock screen up with your mouse to go back to what you were doing on your PC.

Sleep

This uses very little power, your PC starts up faster, and you’re instantly back to where you left off. You don’t have to worry that you'll lose your work because of your battery draining because Windows automatically saves all your work and turns off the PC if the battery is too low. Use sleep when you’re going to be away from your PC for just a little while – like when you’re taking a coffee break.

For a lot of PCs (especially laptops and tablets), your PC goes to sleep when you close your lid or press the power button. Here's how to check if this is what happens and to change it if it doesn't.

Make your PC sleep

Tap or click to open Power Options.

Do one of the following:

If you’re using a desktop or tablet, tap or click Choose what the power button does and under Power button settings, select Sleep and tap or click Save changes.

If you’re using a laptop, tap or click Choose what closing the lid does. Then, next to When I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, when it's running on battery and when it's plugged in, and then tap or click Save changes.

When you’re ready to make your PC sleep, just close your laptop's lid or press the power button on your desktop or tablet.

Hibernate

This option was designed for laptops and might not be available for all PCs (PCs with InstantGo don't have the hibernate option). Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, you’re back to where you left off (though not as fast as sleep). Use hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop or tablet for an extended period and won't have an opportunity to charge the battery during that time. First check to see if this option is available on your PC and if it is, turn it on.

Hibernate your PC

Tap or click to open Power Options.

Tap or click Choose what the power button does and under Shutdown settings, select Hibernate (if it's available).

Now you'll see hibernate in these two places:

In the Power menu in the Settings charm.

In the Shut down or sign out menu.

To get here, move the mouse to the lower left-hand corner of the screen and right-click the Start button, or on your keyboard, press the Windows logo key +X.

win10+睡眠+计算机命令

巧用powercfg –h off命令 Win10关闭系统休眠方法

一、首先使用 Windows + R 打开运行对话框,然后键入命令:cmd 完成后,按回车键或点下方的“确定”打开,如图所示。

二、打开CMD命令窗口之后,再键入命名:powercfg –h off 完成后,按“回车键”运行,如下图所示。

通过DOS命令窗口运行“powercfg –h off”命名,即可快速关闭系统休眠功能。重启后,Win10系统休眠文件便会从系统C盘中消失了,一下就能为节省几个GB的存储空间,对于一些小容量SSD硬盘的用户来说,很实用。

需要注意的是,Win10关闭系统休眠后,会导致“快速启动”功能失效,如果需要电脑快速启动的朋友,需要慎重操作!

如果只是觉得休眠太占地方,又不想放弃这项功能,还可以试一试“powercfg –h size 50”。这项命令的含义是将休眠文件直接压缩到内存容量的50%,比方说你的内存是8G,那么执行该命令后,对应的hiberfil.sys就会变成4GB,而且还不影响休眠功能的使用。

PS:这里的50原则上是可以随便设的,但不能低于50(即不能小于内存容量的50%),你可以根据需要将其设置为60、70、80,设置实时生效。

windows磁盘休眠功能——powercfg -h off/on

A soul tortured by desire

windows磁盘休眠在哪里?在win10系统中默认开启了磁盘休眠功能,如果我们将这个功能关闭的话是否可以提升系统的运行速度呢?不关闭磁盘休眠会有什么问题?磁盘休眠会延长磁盘的使用寿命吗?关闭或者开启磁盘的休眠这个您可以根据您自己的需求来设置。开启系统的休眠后的优点:内存中的内容将保存到硬盘上。当您将计算机唤醒时,进入休眠状态前打开的所有程序与文档都将恢复到桌面上。这样可使开机和关机的速度大大提高。关闭系统的休眠的优点:关闭休眠可以减少硬盘垃圾的产生和积累,能够使得电脑的运行速度更快,也会延长硬盘的使用时间

我的windows10计算机最近的系统磁盘空间是越来越吃紧,只剩下可怜的几GB了。我查看了一下设置,发现是我原来设置了按下电源键是休眠而非关机,这个hiberfil.sys文件体积超大,达到了26GB!于是在设置中将按下电源键改为关机,但这个庞然大物般的文件依然妥妥地在那里占领我的宝贵空间。

于是上网查了哈,其实很简单,只需要在命令行窗口运行一个配置命令就可以了:

在cmd中输入powercfg /h off是为了关闭虚拟内存,但是出现了报错“无法执行操作,出现意外错误(0x65b)”。

  解决办法:在管理员模式的命令提示符(cmd)输入powercfg -h off。

  补充:powercfg /h on是开启虚拟内存。

如果压缩的百分比设置的过于低(比如低于40个百分点,可能导致休眠失败/蓝屏)该命令删除应为启用休眠功能所产生的hiberfil.sys。例如:将休眠文件压缩到物理内存的50%(写入磁盘保存)如果需要查看,可以用资源管理器勾选显示隐藏文件。或者使用powershell,输入以下命令查看。您可以用命令行或者win+R输入。该文件是系统文件,默认是隐藏文件。来快速跳转到相应的设置页面。

怎么删除休眠文件win10

09-05

要删除Windows 10中的休眠文件,您可以按照以下步骤操作:

1. 打开命令提示符:按下Win键+X,在弹出的菜单中选择"命令提示符"。

2. 输入命令:在命令提示符中输入"powercfg -h off",然后按下回车键。这个命令会禁用休眠功能并删除休眠文件。

3. 完成:执行完上述命令后,休眠文件将被删除。您可以通过关闭命令提示符或重启计算机来验证。

请注意,删除休眠文件会导致您无法使用休眠模式,而仅能使用睡眠模式。如果您需要重新启用休眠功能,可以将第2步中的命令改为"powercfg -h on"即可。
