What is a fast boot PC?


Fast boot from PC is a function that allows the computer to start or start up faster, both Windows 11 and Windows 10 have this function!



Quick start function on modern operating systems!

However, this quick boot feature that can help your computer start quickly is not limited to Microsoft OS. Other modern operating systems such as MAC-OS, Linux, Android, ... etc. also have this function, which is mostly a software solution.

Saving the current operating system state!

Saving the current operating system state in a so-called hibernate file (hiberfil.sys) enables your computer to start even faster and saves a few seconds each time the computer is switched on. And with that, the fast start of the PC is realized!

This technique can significantly shorten your start!

When you restart the computer, the operating system does not have to reload the kernel, drivers and system state individually. It simply refreshes the RAM with the loaded state from the hibernation file and quickly takes you to the login screen. 

The disadvantages of the fast start!

1. The quick start file (hiberfil.sys) takes up storage space on the hard disk 

2. Only works well with very fast SSD hard disks 

3. Does not replace the restart, which must be carried out occasionally
