Boot your Old PCs Faster with these Simple Settings (Fix Missing Option)

Prefer watching or listening over reading? Check out our video breakdown below, or scroll down to read the full comprehensive guide!


Are you still using your old PC for any reason and it feels like it takes ages to turn on? Then use Hibernate instead of turning it off and on. It is more power efficient then Stand By option and boots your computer faster then complete Shutdown/Power On cycle.

Missing Hibernate from your Windows power menu? If you’re not seeing the Hibernate option when you click Start > power, the feature is likely disabled behind a locked setting—so it appears greyed out.

In this guide, you’ll enable Hibernate step-by-step by unlocking the unavailable Shutdown settings and turning the checkbox on. By the end, Hibernate will show up in your power menu again.

Step 1: Open Power Options from the battery icon

Start by accessing the power configuration through the system tray:

  • Right-click the battery icon in the Windows system tray.
  • Select Power Options.

This takes you directly into the settings area where Windows controls power actions like sleep, shut down, and—when enabled—hibernate.

Step 2: Go to lid-close settings and unlock hidden options

Next, you’ll navigate to the section that controls shutdown behavior:

  • On the left side, click Choose what closing the lid does.
  • In the System Settings window, look for the Shutdown settings section.
  • You may see Hibernate greyed out. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable to unlock it.

That “currently unavailable” button is the key step—Windows won’t let you enable Hibernate until you grant access to these settings.

Step 3: Enable Hibernate and confirm it appears in the power menu

Once the settings are unlocked:

  • Check the Hibernate checkbox.
  • Click Save changes.
  • Close the window and open the Start menu again.

If everything is correct, Hibernate should now appear in the power menu (with Sleep, Shut down, and Restart options).

Conclusion: Hibernate restored—ready for faster resume and power savings

Restoring Hibernate in Windows 10/11 is usually straightforward: open Power Options, unlock the greyed-out shutdown settings, enable the Hibernate checkbox, and save. After that, Hibernate becomes available wherever Windows shows power actions.

If you still don’t see Hibernate after following these steps, revisit the unlocked settings screen and confirm Hibernate is checked and saved properly.

Organize Your Blogger Posts with Table of Contents with Anchor Links to Headings

How to Add a Table of Contents with Anchor Links to Your Blogger Posts


Introduction

A Table of Contents (TOC) with jump or anchor links can be a great way to improve the readability and user experience of your blogs. It can help your readers quickly find the information they're looking for, especially if your post is long or complex. These navigational hyperlinks are also called Anchor Tags or Bookmarks. In this blog post, I'll show you how to add a TOC to your Blogger post with Named Anchors to create text links.

Step 1: Add IDs to Your Headings

The first step is to add an id attribute to each heading you want to link to. This will give each heading a unique identifier that we can use to create links to it.

To do this, switch to the HTML view of your Blogger post. Then, add an id attribute to each heading, like this:

HTML
<h2 id="heading1">Heading 1</h2>
<h3 id="heading2">Heading 2</h3>

Step 2: Create Links in Your Table of Contents

Next, create the actual TOC. You can do this by adding a list of links to your post. Each link should point to the id of the corresponding heading.

Here's an example of how to create a TOC:

HTML
<ul>
  <li><a href="#heading1">Heading 1</a></li>
  <li><a href="#heading2">Heading 2</a></li>
</ul>

Step 3: Style Your Table of Contents (Optional)

You can style your TOC to match the look and feel of your blog. You can do this using CSS.

Here's an example of how to style your TOC:

CSS
ul {
  list-style-type: none;
  padding: 0;
}

li {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

a {
  color: #000;
  text-decoration: none;
}

a:hover {
  text-decoration: underline;
}

Additional Tips:

  • You can use a tool like the Table of Contents Generator to automatically create the HTML code for your TOC.
  • If you're not comfortable working with HTML, you can use a plugin or widget to add a TOC to your Blogger posts.
  • You can also use CSS to style your TOC. For example, you can change the font size, color, and background color of the headings and links.

Conclusion: Why adding Jump or Anchor Links is a good practice

Adding a TOC with hyperlinks to your Blogger posts is a great way to improve the user experience. By following the steps outlined in this blog post, you can easily add a TOC to your posts.
