Windows Forum / Windows XP / Basics / November 2005How to move hiberfil.sys
Is there any way to do this? I want to put this huge file on my larger D drive. There is nothing about this in the Help documentation or MS KB, and it's not obvious as with the Page file. Thanks in advance for help. Regards, mike K The hibernation file must be on the Windows partition.

I thought partitions were a feature of Unix-based file systems? Does this mean that (unlike the page file), hiberfil.sys must reside on the C drive if the OS is on the C drive? If so, I may just disable hibernation in order to free up that Gb on C.

They may be, but they are also a feature of DOS-based and Winodws-based systems. > Does this mean that (unlike the page file), hiberfil.sys must reside > on the C drive if the OS is on the C drive?

Please, could you also take a look at another question that I posted two days ago: "DNS domain suffix on connection properties not retained".

Sorry, I don't keep already-read messages and have no easy access to messages that aren't current. I can't remember whether I saw your question then, but if I did, presumably I didn't know the answer. If you'd like to ask it again, go ahead.

If >> you'd like to ask it again, go ahead. OK, I see it now. Sorry, I can't help with that particular problem.
