Description

When you shut down Windows by pressing the shut down button from the menu or using any other methods, it doesn’t result in a full shut down, instead it hibernates the kernel and saves its state for faster booting.

The kernel is the central and low-level component of the operating system. It holds total control over the computer and is loaded early in the boot process. This core program contains the hardware drivers that allow the computer to communicate with its hardware devices.

By having a saved image of the kernel, the startup process is accelerated since Windows does not need to reload all the device drivers or reinitialize the hardware devices.
