SUMMARY
Windows NT creates only one temporary file, TEMPPF.SYS. This is a
temporary paging file created at boot time whenever the system detects
that the current paging file configuration is not sufficient and might
prevent you from correcting the deficiency. This file is automatically
deleted the next time the system boots. In nearly all cases, a dialog
box is displayed at logon warning the user of this situation.
Additionally, the System dialog box from Control Panel is spawned
forcing you to address the paging file problem.
