when installing, there should be a swap activated and should be in your 
fstab. But, never mind, at terminal, type
sudo swapoff -a

then
sudo swapon -a

First command closes (deactivates?) all swap and second activates it back.

You may want to check your fstab at /etc/fstab before and after the 
operations to see if there are any changes.
