Easiest way to DELETE pagefile.sys & hiberfil.sys before create image

Asked by SAbboushi in Norton Ghost Backup Software, MS DOS, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems

Tags: delete, pagefile

What is the easiest / fastest (and free!) way (under DOS or Windows) to delete pagefile and hibernation file from my NTFS system partition so that I can take a ghost image?

Notes:
1) I currently boot up BartPE (installed on a dos partition) and Shift/delete the files; then I boot into DOS and ghost the system partition
2) I use Ghost 2003 - it does not have the ability to exclude these files from an image taken of an NTFS partition
3) The soluton has to take less time than what I am already doing!

Fastest way I can think of is an ntfs driver that lets me delete files from DOS that allows me choose which partitions to access (e.g. I remember messing around with some ntfsdos drivers, but either they were read only and/or they assigned drive letters for ALL of my NTFS partitions and ran out of memory because I have almost 2 dozen partitions); a DOS solution would save me time because then I don't have to boot up BartPE.

Sam
