Hello!
In Win8, Windows Key-X then A will open an administrative-level command prompt. You can then enter:
to disable the hibernation file.
The presence of hiberfil.sys definitely causes issues if you try to read from and write to a Windows partition in Linux. It also prevents those Windows password blankers (like pogostick.net) from working. Switching mine off made accessing files of a Windows partition in Linux MUCH easier.
Of course, Your Windows 8 boot time gets longer, but as they say, everything comes at a price...
