<u>Swap files </u>contain(s) remnants of word processing documents, e-mails, Internet browsing activity, database entries, and almost any other work that has occurred during past Windows sessions.
Explanation:
I order to simulate extra space an operating system like windows use hard disk space in order to stimulate extra memory.When a computer system is running low with the memory space the swap file swaps a section of RAM onto the hard disk in order to obtain a free memory space.
This Process at times results in slowing down of the computer computer considerably.
<u>The combination of RAM and swap files is known as virtual memory.</u>
It is due to the use of virtual memory that our computer is able to run more programs than it could run in RAM alone.
