This would have to be enabled on the Motherboard or something because Hibernate is essentially a shutdown with the RAM saved into the Hard Drive, unless they've changed that.

My PC meaning "My" PC
"My" in My PC means "Microsoft's". All the Windows PCs in this world are all their's.
All your base are belong to us.
Devils advocate time: Windows does this because users are stupid and will never update their PCs if they don't have to. I've met too many people who never update their tech. Operating systems and the software they run is far too complex to be 100% secure so we mitigate that by updates. They are a necessity. The vulnerability responsible for EternalBlue was patched and pushed with a windows update before the ransomware attack, how many users ignored it? Windows is so annoying with its updates because it has to be.
I know I'm not awake because I read your first line as "Devils advocate time", as in "Devils argue in support of time itself. "
I'll have to discuss this with the time-being.

Wow, that being a thing sounds surreal Oo
Me with my computer in a different room
I agree with some comments here, hibernation/suspension has been tricky, I've always had minor bugs and like kinda major, screen.. lines? popping up and just not even working sometimes, welp. I suppose it's better knowing what's breaking than wrestling control between you and microsoft..
Mine just doesn't suspend/hibernate at all. Probably some dependency not installed, but I'm not assed to find out which one
Yeah I think it's going to show up in some log what exactly is causing that but I usually search what I'm supposed to do so.. do that if you have time I guess
What I really like about Linux (Mint) is the automation of updates. I had a similar feature enabled on Windows (10), but I still had to install most of it manually. With Linux (Mint) the automation works wonderfully and I have no stress. Another reason not to go back to Windows.
