Start Menu in Windows is like the master control panel of your PC. In Windows 11, Microsoft made some big changes to the start menu. The layout has changed and the features that are included have been streamlined for a cleaner, hopefully, more intuitive, user experience. And moreover, the start menu is moved to the central location, instead of having a static position in the lower-left corner of the screen, Microsoft moved the Start button and the other icons to the middle portion of the taskbar. Windows 11 Offers lot of customization options to add or remove app and programs to the Start Menu. You can Pin any apps to the Start Menu and the Recommended section will show you the recently opened items. And you can add System folders to the Start Menu. One of the noticeable missing features of Windows 11 is that the Hibernate option is missing from the Power menu. If you click on the Power button from the start menu you can see the Sleep, Shutdown, and Restart option. Hibernate will be missing from the list. This article will guide you to Add Hibernate to the Windows 11 Start Menu.
