Clear virtual memory pagefile at Windows-8 Shutdown (8.1, 10, seven)!


It is with Windows 8, 8.1, or seven fairly simple to adjust the settings so that the paging file (pagefile.sys, swapfile.sys) is deleted on shutdown. The solution is also for Windows 10!

Then simply click on "Local Policies", "Security Options" and highlight/click on the text "Shutdown: Clear virtual memory pagefile" (... see Image-1 Arrow-2)

Now a window opens called "Shutdown: Clear virtual memory pagefile Properties". Here enable or disable clearing the paging file at shutdown of the computer (PC). (... see Image-1 Arrow-3)
