Automatically Clear Page File at Shutdown
If your pagefile is small and you want to clear it automatically at shutdown then you should follow the tutorial:-
1. Type “regedit” in run or start menu and press enter.
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\.
3. Right-click on Memory Management and select New>DWORD (32-bit) Value.
4. Name the DWORD value “ClearPageFileAtShutdown” (without qoutes). (Skip this if you already have the value.)
5. Double-click on the DWORD value and type “1″ (without qoutes) in the value data box.
That’s it. Now restart your computer to see the changes.

To disable it then simply delete the value or download this registry script and merge it.
NOTE: This tweak will decrease your shutdown speed dramatically. If your page file is less than 1 GB then the speed should be ok.
