Technical answer: The memory is freed when the AppDomain is unloaded or the process is shut down.
Better answer: The memory is freed whenever the GC decides to free it. You don’t know and aren’t supposed to care. If your Singleton is tracking unmanaged resources (i.e. file handles, GDI handles, anything other than memory), and you need to release them at any time whatsoever while your application is still “running”, then the Singleton needs to provide the necessary methods to do so.
