    Hello Dkaleky,

    Mem files are created when you launch the Guest OS and disappear when you shut down. It is a temporary virtual memory file. If you did not finish the work in Windows properly (through Start -> Shut down), the mem file stays in the VM folder containing memory dump.

    Best regards,
    Xenos

    If your VM is running you are not able to delete it, if it is suspended deleting it cause VM hard reset (as in real PC)
