One way is to disable virtual memory and then reboot.

Why would that do it and what is the potential for adverse effects?

I should have added that right after the first reboot, go back and
'enable' it and reboot again.
Unless you have a lot of programs running at first boot, there should
be no adverse effect.

Another way would be to put your virtual memory on another
partition.

Why would that work ?

After the first reboot, the old swp file would be emptied because the
new swap file would be on another partition.
Not a good way to do it, but I was giving another way to 'empty' the
swap file.
Actually, I never should have mentioned it.

Another way would be to delete its contents while in real-mode
DOS.

Looking back, I should have just suggested the below.

Why do you want to do it?
It just rebuilds by itself.
There are free 'memory-saver-boost' programs that will do it, but
most
consider them to be snake-oil type programs.
What is the problem you are having.
