  2. Right click on "EnableHibernate" and click on Edit to bring up Group Policy Management Editor
  3. Select 'Show hibernate in the power options menu' from Computer Configuration | Policies | Administrator Templates | Windows Component | File Explorer and set to Enabled HibernateGPO
  4. Back in Group Policy Management Enable Link for "EnableHibernate"
