Clean RAM on Windows

This guide provides a simple and effective method to clear your system's cached memory without closing any running applications. This can help improve system responsiveness, especially after long uptime or memory-intensive tasks.

Downloads

CleanRAM.zip

Download the archive containing the RAM cleaning script and the necessary RAMMap utility.

Instructions

  1. Download and Extract: Download the CleanRAM.zip file from the link above. Extract the contents to a folder on your computer.
  2. Prepare Folder: Ensure both CleanRAM.bat and RAMMap64.exe are in the same folder (they should be after extraction).
  3. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the CleanRAM.bat file and select "Run as administrator". This is a critical step, as the script needs elevated permissions to clear system memory.
  4. Wait for the Process: A command prompt window will appear and display the cleaning progress. This process is safe and **will not close your running applications**.
  5. Complete: Once finished, the script will display a completion message and the window will close automatically. Your system's cached RAM is now cleared!
