Flush DNS Resolver Cache in Windows 11

Network and Internet Flush DNS Resolver Cache in Windows 11

This tutorial will show you how to flush your DNS resolver cache in Windows 11, Windows10, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome. A DNS (Domain Name System) resolver cache is a temporary database, maintained by Windows, that contains records of all your recent visits and attempted visits to websites and other Internet domains.

Add or Remove Sleep on Power menu in Windows 11

System Add or Remove Sleep on Power menu in Windows 11

This tutorial will show you how to add or remove Sleep on the power menu for all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Add or Remove Hibernate on Power menu in Windows 11

System Add or Remove Hibernate on Power menu in Windows 11

This tutorial will show you how to add or remove Hibernate on the power menu for all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11. Hibernate is a power-saving state designed primarily for laptops, and might not be available for all PCs. (For example, PCs with Modern Standby may not have hibernate available.) While sleep puts your work and settings in memory and draws a small amount of power, hibernation puts your open documents and programs on your hard disk to the hiberfile (C:\hiberfil.sys), and then turns off your computer. Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, you’re back to where you left off (though not as fast as sleep). Use hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop or tablet for an...
