Show hibernation in Windows 8 Charms On Off menu

The hibernation option is missing from the charms menu, although of course it's still there. Windows 8 just doesn't show them. In just a few steps, the hibernation option can be added to the existing options "save energy", "shutdown" and "restart".

 

The charm menu is the “bar” which opens when the mouse is moved to the upper or lower right corner.
There you will find the gear symbol as the lower menu item Settings. Clicking on it leaves the icon On off access, which by default only has the options "Save Energy","shut down" and "Start anew"contains.

How do I add the Idle menu item to the Charms On / Off menu?

Energy optionsMove the mouse to the upper right corner, click on the search symbol and enter "Energy options ” a. The entry "Energy options ”on, click on it and select in the "power options"left the entry"Choose what to do when you press the power button".

 

 

At the bottom there can be a tick next to “Idle state - Display in the energy menu"Display must be set, but first must be set to" in the upper area.Some settings are currently unavailable”Must be clicked, because this first activates these options.
