Wait, there's a swap file in Windows? I thought we just used RAM for everything these days. Oh well, I guess I'll go with the classic C:\pagefile.sys and hope for the best.

Oooh, a trick question! I bet it's C:\config.sys, just to mess with us. But I'm sticking with A, because I'm not about to fall for that old swap file switcheroo.

Hmm, let me think... C:\hiberfil.sys? Wait, that's the hibernation file, not the swap file. C:\pagefile.sys it is!

I'm going with option A. I mean, it's not like they're gonna make the swap file location a secret or anything, right? That would just be cruel.

User 2: Yeah, it's probably A. They wouldn't hide something like that in a random location.

User 1: I think it's A too. Makes sense to have it in the root directory.

Well, duh, it's C:\pagefile.sys. That's where the swap file has been for like, forever. I'm surprised this is even a question!

I'm not sure, but I think it might be C:\\config.sys because that file contains configuration settings for the operating system.

I believe it's actually located at C:\\hiberfil.sys because that's where Windows stores the hibernation file.
