Do it is possibile to delete pagefile.sys in ramdisk in shutdown to avoid to write it in disk image file?

You may create another ramdisk without an associated image file to hold pagefile.sys. Thus there is no image save operation at shutdown.

interesting idea but I would prefer to use the same disk because setting the pagefile.sys at 20-250 not necessarily will deal 250.
Instead dedicating a disk specifically for strength should devote 250.
I tried ClearPageFileAtShutdown but does not work .

If you don't need to save the whole ramdisk at the shutdown, you can change the image settings to "Load Only". But if you want to only skip pagefile.sys while saving other files, I am sorry that I have no idea so far...
