flashh4 Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) Howdy Martint, heres some info on the HIBERFIL.SYS file.Its a system-generated file. File is used by Windows for hibernation. * HIBERFIL.SYS is a file the system creates when the computer goes into hibernation mode. Windows uses the file when it is turned back on. If you don't need hibernation mode and want to delete the file you need to turn the hibernation option off before Windows will allow you to delete the file... o Start | Control Panel | Power Options o Go to the Hibernate Tab o Uncheck the Enable Hibernation box if you don't need the hiberation function Edited August 23, 2007 by flashh4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
