P3D TOP TIPS 2020 | Clearing the Memory Cache in Windows 10 | Performance increase

[@AdamJPestridge]

What tips and tricks do you know to keep your flight sim operating smooth?

[@markcomputertech7997]

Will try this. Tired of CTD's in P3D V4.5!!

[@carsonferreira3856]

There is another tool, called the Intelligent Standby List Cleaner, which is made by the same people who created DDU (a popular driver removal program). It has a GUI, which is easier for some people than setting up the task scheduler. This looks like a solid fix though, need to try it in my sim.

[@the_primetime2187]

I dont have the emptystands list

[@Un4ble]

Very interesting, I will try that. I sometimes have the issue that the frames are good at the beginning of the flight, but when approaching the destination airport the frames drop. Starting a new flight from the same scenery and everything is fine.

[@anthonymarvin95]

Same! was getting a steady 50 frames upon departure and on arrival around 15??? wtf? and it was a less detailed airport I was flying into! Hope this does the trick :/

[@rockyjetproject1345]

It works like a charm. Easy to install following your instructions and it works great. Thank you!!

[@AdamJPestridge]

Rocky Jet Melendez no worries. It has helped me so much to run the sim smoothly.

[@charlesallsop2470]

Hi Adam, this is really simple but logical! I just could not find the program itself so pointed Actions to the.exe file in my download folder. It works but probably a better way to do this?

[@curtisstinnett468]

is this still a thing and if so discord link don't work for me

[@pickle4474]

Adam thank you for this I'm going to try it as I just booted up my sim (P3Dv4)and checked and even on start up windows had cached 11.5GB! I run 32gb ram but I could not believe this.

[@sunnyipyt]

Hello May I know will clear memory cache affect the running program during my flight? for example some background running addons, GSX, SODE, WX Engine, blahblahblah? thank you very much!

[@AdamJPestridge]

Sunny Ip I have it running and have never had a problem. There is a one to two second minor pause sometimes when it clears the memory, but it’s totally worth it to keep the system running smooth..

[@sunnyipyt]

@@AdamJPestridge thank you very much! will keep trying maybe run every 5 mins is perfect, because I think the minor pause maybe because of there are too much cache to clear, so make it 5mins will less minor pause i guess, by the way really thank you!, and have a nice day Adam, subbed from Hong Kong

That’s a folder you create from the link below

I did as you show and nothing happened when press run Help please

[@AdamJPestridge]

If guy follow the instructions on the video exactly, it will work. The only way to find out if it has is to watch the Cache memory in task manager and you will see it go to 0.0 after so long if done correctly.

[@t777captain4]

I tried your suggestion Adam and It worked had 10.6GB of files Cached I wondered for a while now why my pc was getting blurries in some areas as I have a high end PC I7 7700K 4.2 Ghz with a turbo boost with a 1070 Strix GTX graphics can with P3Dv4.5 on a dedicated 1TB drive, sim is loading now for a test It went to just over a GB now back down to 235mb anf building. I also use process lasso which helps. i also use a 35" curved screen ASUS gaming monitor with GSYNC enable to 100GHz refresh rate

Your welcome. It helps to run the computer more smoothly.

[@nordicexposure8634]

Got blurry ground textures and autogenerate that wouldn’t load in return. It was worth a try anyways

[@AdamJPestridge]

Blurry ground textures could be there for a number of reasons. Basically what’s happening is that the higher detail textures are not loading in. Find out why and you’ve solved it. What is your pc specs please? Clearing the temp memory cache would not have any affect on solving that.

[@ricardocorrearias]

Hey very helpfull video!, are you experienceing more cache problem of FPS probl3em with hotfix 4.5.13.320987 P3D V4?

Step by step but I don't find .....empty stans. In my program files.

[@AdamJPestridge]

it does not appear in the program files, you are creating a process to execute. If you watch your memory within the task manager, under performance, the cache will empty every 10 minutes if followed correctly.

@@AdamJPestridge yea because first of all u need to download this program.

Installed as per the video. My sim now pauses every 5 minutes when the memory is cleared. Anyone else having this issue?

[@AdamJPestridge]

Jeff Lindquist yes that’s one side effect. A micro pause for one second. A small price to pay for having a smooth sim.

[@jefflindquist5203]

@@AdamJPestridge, actually it was a permanent pause. I turned off the Pause on Task in the sim and it solved the issue.
