386SPART.PAR

operating system (Or "WIN386.SWP") 386SPART.PAR is a

hidden file created by Windows 3.1 for use as virtualmemory swap file. It is generally found in the rootdirectory, however it may appear elsewhere (typically in the

WINDOWS directory). Its size depends on how much virtual

memory you have set up under (Control Panel) Enhanced under

Virtual Memory. If you move or delete this file Windows will

complain the next time you start it with a Swap File error.

Windows 95 uses a similar file, except it is named

WIN386.SWP, and the controls for it are located under Control

Panel - System - Performance tab - Virtual Memory.
