Fast Startup on M.2 NVMe SSD ?

Hi,
I don't know the hibernation save interval timing is every five minutes I'd guess.

Hibernation only occurs when the computer shuts down. The only automatic timing is that you can set the computer to enter the hibernation shutdown mode after a specified time of no activity in power settings, and you know when that happens because after the hibernation information is written to the disk, the computer turns off.

During a power outage, without a battery backup system, the computer just goes dead immediately and there is no time for hibernation to occur.

Guys sorry it's my fault i didn't explain well enough.

I was reffering to "selective startup" aka fast startup also in msconfig.

In msconfig i saw that there are types of startup :

- normal startup
- diagnostic startup
- selective startup

For me it's set to selective startup with those checkmarks on loading other stuff i think. It's always been set like this every time i reinstalled the OS.

That's why i didn't knew if it's better to keep it on selective startup or change to normal startup ?

Hi,
I use normal.

I use normal.

Is it bad if i let it stay as selective ?

Most people told me i should let it be like that and shouldn't mess with it.

Hi,
Depends on how much crapware you have.
I have slim local account installs so nothing delays startup except third party security.

Mine has always been set to selective startup.

Yep that's how it's always been for me since i use W10.

There's no point in having fast startup enabled for SSDs. You can also save space by disabling hibernation - which must be enabled for fast startup. Fast startup is a feature which is significant for HDDs. It is supposed to help when cold booting. However it can cause problems in certain cases with drivers.

While I've personally not encountered any issues with device drivers due to the Fast Boot option enabled, I'm in total agreeance with dalchina. Fast Boot isn't just unnecessary, it's actually not recommended if your operating system runs from an SSD drive.
