Hi,


Windows 10 has the option to set your computer to hibernate after your preferred length of time. Here's how:

  1. Right-click Start, then select Control Panel.
  2. Choose the Large icons option from the View by drop down list found on the upper-right part of the Control Panel window.
  3. Locate then click Power Options.
  4. Click Change plan settings beside the already ticked plan under the Preferred plans. Example: High Performance
  5. Click Change advanced power settings.
  6. Cascade the Sleep option, next the Hibernate after option.
  7. Click Setting (Minutes) then type your 60 minutes if you want your computer to hibernate after an hour.
  8. Click Apply, then OK.

Let us know if the issue persists.


Regards.
