Delete hiberfil.sys in Windows

Windows device certainly has a Sleep and Hibernate function. This function minimizes the electrical power consumption of the device which is much less when it's on. But a common reason for users to hibernate or sleep is the desire to turn on their computer faster or allow the file being opened not to close directly. 

Sleep and Hibernate modes have different function, where Sleep mode uses only the minimum amount of electricity / battery consumption to keep information in your PC's memory. While Hibernate Mode saves more power by writing information in memory to the hard drive and turning it off, the benefit is to get your PC back on faster than bringing it from a completely inactive state and that's where the hiberfil.sys file works.

Hibernate mode will create file hiberfil.sys on computer. The size will increase depend on 

How to disable hibernate mode is almost the same in Windows 10, 8, 7, and Vista. You must use the Command Prompt as an administrator to complete it. But this only requires one simple command. Disabling hibernate mode automatically deletes the hiberfil.sys file.

First, you shoud run command prompt as an administrator. Then use this command to deactivate hibernate mode:

powercfg.exe -h off

If you want to enable this mode, just use on command:

powercfg.exe -h on

That's all. Good Luck

And  this is a website  to convert Gb into Mb (–resize takes Mb as input, 200Gb = 204800Mb). Boot Gparted to resize the partition After a default install of Ubuntu Server on one physical disk, you will have a SWAP partition, and then an extended partition in which you’ll have your LVM partition (So 3 partitions).  Download Gparted  .iso,...

Website Using HTTPS Protocol

Last week, I changed protocol of my website from http to https. There were steps that i had to do. First, I installed openssl package and mod_ssl # yum install mod_ssl openssl Then, I configured the openssl  and created certificate # cd /etc/pki/tls/certs # make server.key # openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.key # make server.csr # openssl x509 -in server.csr -out server.crt -req -signkey server.key -days 3650 # chmod 400 server.* After that, I changed configuration of httpd/apache #nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf DocumentRoot "/var/www/html" ServerName www.server.world:443 SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/server.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/server.key Last, I restarted the webserver #service httpd restart That's all what i did last week to change my website protocol from http to https.
