Hibernate Once Resume Many (HORM) In Windows XPe FP2007
Saturday, 04 November 2006 by Michel Roth
HORM (Hibernate Once Resume Many) allows a rapid reboot and return to the same hibernated image over and over again. Much different from the way you typically use hibernate mode on shut down with your desktop. With your desktop non-XP embedded operating system, you can only restore the image you hibernated last and hibernated images do not persist across reboots. If you want to return to the same image after a rapid reboot on your device, your choice is HORM.

HORM works with EWF (Enhanced Write Filter). This feature is not new to XP Embedded operating system and was introduced in SP2. We did not change the functionality of HORM in FP2007. We changed the way HORM is activated and enabled. For HORM to work, you had to manually create a file in the root directory. To disable HORM, you had to disable EWF, reboot (for EWF disable to take effect), delete the file, reboot (for resume from hibernation to get clear), enable EWF and reboot again (for EWF enable to take effect).
