• Cannot delete hiberfil.sys. No matter what.

  Hi guys, for the last few weeks I was on a trip to remove hiberfile.sys frustrating and in desperation I asked for help.

  My Windows 7 is installed on its own disk having a capacity of 29.7 GB. I was installing all my programs and everything on the other drive, but the hiberfil.sys is taking 8.3 GB and despite all my best efforts (using CCcleaner, media stored on external HD etc etc) this car only has a few hundred MB free and is way in the red.
  Result is, I don't want to Hibernate, and I don't want this file with 27% of my C: / and it will not leave.
  
  
  OK, so I read almost all guides on the 3 first pages of google search images "delete hiberfil.sys" and they all give essentially the same steps.
  so far, that's what I did:
  • Go to settings of power and assured Hibernate is disabled - in fact this isn't there at all.
  • Open a cmd in administrator mode and type powercfg-h off prompt.
  • I also did the foregoing in about 50 setups a different syntax - all I found online (e.g., powercfg.exe HIBERNATE OFF)
  • I know for a fact that the syntax works because I used 50 powercfg.exe/HIBERNATE/Size and it actually changed the size. It has really changed the size of 6 GB to 8 GB which has been a big shock, because I was under the impression she's 75% by default, but anyway...
  • After powercfg-off in the syntax as much as I could find, I want to restart my machine and the hiberfil.sys is always still there.
  • Not where I could find online or on forums showed those who encounter this same problem where it is not removed after you perform this step.

  So what is so special about my laptop? Can you tell me (well I hope that you can anyway).
  I appreciate any help you can give me - this thing has been so annoys me and I can't do anything to get rid of this redundant file.
  Thanks in advance :)

  Hi Vaughan,

  The Hiberfil.sys hidden system file is located in the folder root of the drive where the operating system is installed. The Windows Kernel Power Manager reserves this file when you install Windows. The size of this file is approximately equal to the amount of memory (RAM) is installed on the computer.

  The computer uses the file Hiberfil.sys to store a copy of the system hard disk memory when sleep hybrid setting is turned on. If this file is not present, the computer cannot Hibernate.

  I suggest you delete the file in safe mode and check. Ensure that hibernation is not enabled.

  If you still can't delete it, use the Windows 7 installation disc to start the computer in safe mode with command prompt and run the command to remove the file.

  For more information, see the link.

• If you use Firefox to connect to facebook, I get a message on the download of anti-malware programs. How can I stop this?

  A few days ago, I tried to connect to Facebook to play games, chat and so on. After filling in the username and password, I get a message telling me it looks like I have malware on my computer and I need to download certain types of anti-malware program to clean my computer. This only happens when using Firefox. How can I get rid of this? I tried to remove and reinstall Firefox. I ran two major anti-malware programs that work on my laptop. If it is a legitimate program from Fb, I would like the option to refuse. I did not have the choice. I can connect to Fb on Google Chrome without problems, and so I have to conclude that this is a problem with Firefox. Any ideas? I tried to contact Fb, but so far there has been no response.

  If you get a pop-up message asking to put plugins or Firefox updated or anti-malware analysis then this message probably is a scam and you should never respond to such reporting to avoid being infected by malware.

  • Don't update Firefox via "> about" or by downloading and installing Firefox from Mozilla and server never using a popup or a link on a web page.
  • Plugins should be updated only through the plugin itself, or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

  Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
  Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
  All of these programs have free versions.

  Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

• Cannot delete unused or temporary Internet files Program files with "Disk Cleanup".

  1. impossible to delete unused or temporary Internet files Program files with "Disk Cleanup".

  2 cannot run Word Office 97. Tried to delete it and then put it back, twice

  3 cannot run "restore." When I do, he wants to restore my AUDIO files!  I tried restoring the system through the optimization of PC

  4. having reinstalled Windows XP twice, with the same results

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.

  Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before the error occurred initially do not use this option.

  If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.

  A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

  cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

• What anti-virus/anti-malware programs in conflict with one another?

  many have said that too many anti-virus/anti-malware programs installed can damage these collide with one another, causing the programs may not run correctly and sometimes cause the computer hang very badly. So what programs shock/does not shock with another?

  (eg. malwarebytes and norton are compatible)

  It seems that your registry cleaner question has not been answered.

  The so-called "registry cleaners" can aggravate a situation and take measures, we are manually updated on many times.
  It is better not to rely on these programs, if you don't know what is happening with the proposed fix and the registry.
  Otherwise, a change in the registry can make a system that no longer starts due to an error.

  Here are a few good discussions:

  is it possible to have all my anti virus/malware programs to all work together without one stop on the other?

  is it possible to have all my anti virus/malware programs to all work together without one stop on the other?

  I doubt it.

  You should never have more than one security product installed on the PC, providing active protection / scan. This can cause performance problems, system instability and conflicts between programs and can affect all installed antivirus product efficiency. Even if you try to have more than one product installed, with an asset and another disabled, disabled product will probably still active components and/or installation of the drivers installed that will conflict with any other antivirus program.

• Anti-virus/anti-malware programs

  Windows Defender is sufficient as an anti-virus/anti-malware program; Otherwise, what is compatible with iolo system mechanic/Windows Vist Home premium?

  I would recommend the free Microsoft Security Essentials, which is a complete security package.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows/products/security-essentials

  I would also caution the use of any 3rd party reg cleaners etc.. Vista does not need them and they break more often that they set.
