How to disable hiberfil function?

[kopdl]

I just install Vista for 2 days. Since I install it on a small partition, I
want to free up disk space by disabling hiberfil function. I can find the
"hiberfil.sys" file but the system does not allow me to delete the file. I
know it is required to disable the hiberfil function before I delete the
file. So can anyone tell me the correct steps to disable this function?
Thanks for your reply.

As an administrator, choose the cleanup function in the control panel (
search for remove unused in the CPs search field ) - I don't have Vista open
at the moment, so I don't remember its name

There you have the option of removing temporary files etc - and - the
Hibernation File.

Open an elevated command prompt and type:

powercfg -h off
