You can enable the start menu hibernate button in advanced power settings:

System -> Power & sleep -> Additional power settings -> Choose what the power buttons do -> Change settings that are currently unavailable -> Check Hibernate.

And then get lucky that your laptop wakes up again (mine dies 1 out of 10 times)

Edit: sorry, can't read.



No, you can't; that option is disabled. It cannot be checked. I don't know how I can state this more clearly.

"Turn on fast startup (recommended)" is checked, and that option is also disabled and can't be unchecked, despite obviously being undesirable.


Maybe you have Group Policy settings? Sometimes "Windows tweaker" type apps install these. Also, mine has a link "Change settings that are currently unavailable" which shows a UAC prompt and then enables all checkboxes.


The checkbox is disabled by default. To enable it you have to click the "Allow advanced options" button at the top of the page.
