Clearing the working memory and releasing the system brakes Windows XP, Vista

During longer work sessions with frequent program change, the system becomes slower. Only after restarting it, does it runs at the usual speed.

The reasons for that are the ill-programmed applications, which, on being closed, do not completely clear the working memory. The Internet has numerous tools to offer which can clean the working memory, but this can be very easily done using on-board resources as well.

• First create a new text file, by rightclicking on a free spot on the desktop and selecting the context command ‘New | Text file’.
• Name this ‘RAM refresh. txt’.
• By double-clicking, open the file and enter the following command: FreeMem – space(64000000) Save and close the file.
• For Windows to be able to run this, select the file symbol, press [F2] and rename the file to ‘RAM Refresh.vbs’.
• Now, double click on it and Windows will immediately clean 64 MB of working memory.
• NOTE: If you want to clear more space, increase the value of ‘Space’.
• The maximum permissible value depends on the size of the RAM in the computer.
• Never set the value too high and ensure that at least 128 MB of the system memory remains untouched. Or else, you are risking a Windows crash.
