  1. Hi,
    I’m facing a problem in my PC, which is two stubborn sys file located in C drive named ”hiberfil.sys” and ”pagefile.sys”. The main problem is whenever I’m trying to delete these files it shows – ”the action can’t be completed because the file is open in another program”and I don’t know which program is associated with this and how to close this?
    Both these files occupies spaces in GB, and I just want to delete these (whatever is this) without formatting my computer. Please help me to get rid of these sys files.
    Sir, I’ll be highly obliged if my problem would be sorted out.
    Thank you.

  2. ^^ Dont worry about those files. Those are system files and cant be deleted. Even if you delete them somehow by taking ownership, etc, the files will be re-created by Windows.

    Hiberfil.sys file is related to Hibernate functionality. Pagefile.sys file is an essential file which is used in memory related functionality
