why? whats wrong with it?
Other than the fact that it's taking up 16GB of space for no reason?

I actually set the size manually to 16 GB
IIRC, the user has no control of the size allocation of the hiberfil.sys file. It's automatically determined by the amount of RAM you have. Maybe you're thinking of the pagefile.sys? That very much IS user configurable.
It's not like I use it often, but sometimes I prefer to have it ready for use.
It's up to you, but disabling the feature saves SSD wear&tear, saves space and reduces system resources. As a general rule I disable it and advise everyone to do the same if they're using an SSD as a boot drive. The bootup time differences between hibernation and full boot on an SSD(even a slower model) are minimal. You are very unlikely to notice unless you count the seconds.

This is correct, but it doesn't have to be; just follow these instructions:

Change the size of hibernation -hiberfil.sys-.

Important: The hiberfil.sys can be reduced by a maximum of 50%. If a larger value is entered, Windows ignores this value and leaves the hiberfil.sys at 50% of the original value.


For HybridBoot to work, the size of hiberfil.sys must not be selected too small. Otherwise the fast boot will not work.


For the registry enter:

Screenshot 2021-07-17 091456.png



or press Win + X open command prompt (administrator)

enter the following: powercfg /hibernate /size 50

This example sets the size to 50%.

Enter a value between 50 and 100 ( Is the value in percent of the installed Ram)

Example: Value 100 (you have 4GB Ram 75% of it = ca 3GB hiberfil.sys)

Example: Value 50 (Equals then approx 2GB hiberfil.sys)

and Enter
Restart PC

Interesting. Did not know you could change the size of the hiberfil.sys file. Still think it's a function better left disabled as it often causes more problems than it's worth.
Are you people using an antivirus or just windows Defender/Firewall?
I remove defender completely and use a different antivirus/antimalware scanner. As for the firewall, that is disabled also and a solid third party solution is used.

First disable UAC. Then restart the system into a WinPE USB disc type EBD or Linux based EBD, then use a file manager to rename defender's exe files. Optionally you can simply delete the folders where defender resides(Program Files, Program Files X86, Program Data).

Reboot back into Windows. POOF, defender is gone! If microsoft respected our rights to remove things we don't want installed, it would be much easier... but whatever..

It's up to you, but disabling the feature saves SSD wear&tear, saves space and reduces system resources. As a general rule I disable it and advise everyone to do the same if they're using an SSD as a boot drive. The bootup time differences between hibernation and full boot on an SSD(even a slower model) are minimal. You are very unlikely to notice unless you count the seconds.
Like I said, I occasionally use it and I haven't even filled half the drive, so I don't really mind.

As said by plastisch (I'm not gonna look up how that last character is typed :laugh: ), you can change the size through command prompt (though I'm slightly surprised that in all these years there has never been an official GUI control for it, though not like it really matters).

Regarding the SSD wear, it really doesn't matter unless you're hibernating the system all the time, which is not my case. As far as I know, the hiberfil.sys file is completely empty, and when you create it or adjust its size Windows only writes down the cluster allocation, nothing else.

I agree however that people shouldn't use hibernation in replacement of the standard shutdown capability. In fact, I disable the "fast startup" option in the power settings, just to force Windows to do a cold boot up.

IMO, hibernation's use case should be limited to when you're working with, say, two dozen applications and you need to turn off the system for whatever reason and don't want to have to open everything you were working on again the next time you use the computer, and I'm excluding from this case a situation where you're working with network files (those files should be saved and the corresponding application closed if it depends on network status for whatever reason). In such case, it's a time saver. Outside of that, if you closed everything, might as well turn off the system the standard way.
Are you people using an antivirus or just windows Defender/Firewall?
Just Defender. Been thinking of installing third-party AV and firewall suite, but haven't decided on it yet.

If anyone else is having a problem opening power in settings i found a work around just type power in the search it will bring up the old menu but you can do the same settings there
Yep, going to the Settings app, System, Power causes the Settings app to crash and close. Hasn't been listed as known issue in the WIP blog, but it seems to have been reported in Feedback hub.

I remove defender completely and use a different antivirus/antimalware scanner. As for the firewall, that is disabled also and a solid third party solution is used.
On the firewall, can we agree that the built-in firewall in Windows kinda sucks? :laugh:

Kinda? :roll: "Definitely" sucks or "seriously" sucks would have been my choice of vocabulary. But yes, we agree. The Windows inbuilt firewall is very much less than optimal.

Just Defender. Been thinking of installing third-party AV and firewall suite, but haven't decided on it yet.
Comodo.
Currently that best combined AV & Firewall. It also has fine-grained controls as well as program/app/exe management controls which are very cool. It makes the offerings from microsoft look sad and pathetic..

EDIT:
The current offline installer can be found here;

There are others that are solid as well, but Comodo is my go to suite.

No Sir!
I guess i am mutating to a super hacking nerd sticking to TPU and you guys all the time! This aint good..

I mean many ways leading to Rome but yours is def. longer than Hannibals passing the Alps in 218 b.C. , mate! :D I read your post and had no idea what to do, what you meant.
So basicly i had to switch on my brains and found a solution Bill Gates would start to cry an ocean of tears. If i had to describe your way; U went from behind, trough the chest, into the eye. ;)

by doing the following:

# Start winPE (systemdrive is not shown, security issue)

# Datastorages > Storagemanagement > the system partition is displayed then > click right > change driveletter- , path to any letter!
# TPU or the securitymanagement loses the link/shortcut to the drive immediately and sets it free.

Reboot back into Windows. POOF, defender is gone! If microsoft respected our rights to remove things we don't want installed,
yes, sir! :love: :toast: and i made a screenshot in case this is too sensitive and gets lost. i will keep this for my personal recordings.



@lexluthermiester

EDIT:
a repair procedure with an install.wim will restore the deleted folders completely! So this must handled the other kinda perfidious way:


Screenshot 2021-07-18 032208.png

{principals must be: local+enter= you allow all // sys+enter=system denied all}


It is not allowed to DEL them with windowsPE you must hijack them in which you take the access rights to you and in the same revoke the system!
The folders remain intact, they will not be replaced when scanning the component store!
[ \scan health e.g. ]



Warning!

@lexluthermiester

After the door has been brutally kicked in by simply removing all links to the drive for identification by simply changing the drive letter, so that TPM can be leveraged __ TPM puts a surprise egg in the nest for it:

All backups and shadow copies, created during this time, are unusable and the hard drive is deleted when you try to restore it!

Irretrievable! You will forced to a clean install then.

But this is not so bad if you do something immediately after you have made the defender unusable:

TPM simply recreate_

A restart and everything is back to the old! You just must not forget it under any circumstances.

There were a few minor issues after i installed Windows 11

1- EVGA Precision X1 - In W10 i used to sync/change the color of the EVGA logo and the color of the RGB Waterblock but in Windows 11 i could just change the Color of the logo ( fixed it installing ARMOURY CRATE )

2- NVRLA.exe - it was causing high CPU usage/temps, in Windows 10 i never had issues with it ( Fixed it uninstalling the last Nvidia driver and rolling back to the previous driver 466.77

One more thing, why does it says that Windows is activated with a digital license, is it normal?

Nice find. Too bad the Bliss wallpaper in the zip is 1080p with some JPEG compression.

The 4K version without compression:
yeah that far to small for 4k.
normal size un compress jpeg should be around 17mb at 4k give or take on what your taking.
. raw 40 or more depending on raw format.

Did you use a key that is attached to your microsoft account? If so, that's normal. If not, it might still be normal.
I believe it uses your bios hardwired Windows 10 key, I done an upgrade from 10 first and needed to perform a clean install and Win 11 is reporting activated, I haven't had to enter a product key
