Just a quick note on this.

When you run powercfg.exe /hibernate off you will also turn off Fast Startup in Windows 10.

That's not a bad thing as Fast Startup really doesn't do anything useful for your PC and should (IMO) be turned off anyway. Fast Startup is something I always disable on any machine I work on.

For more info, read this thread on Sysnative:

Disable or Enable Windows 10 Fast Startup (and Why)

Hope that's helpful.
