In this article, we shall discuss “How to change the Windows Pagefile Size”. Please see , How to fix Windows Microsoft Store not opening, how to backup Azure VM with VM Settings, and how to Increase Disk Size in Hyper-V.

How to suppress "low memory" warnings in Vista Home Premium when running without paging file?

A few weeks ago I disabled all paging files on my Media Center. I figured that it only ever runs AVG, Media Center, Logmein, Chrome and sundry services to support these and never gets above 1.4-1.5GB of physical memory used, so what harm could it do? Overall this has worked splendidly and the lack of…

Any reason not to disable Windows kernel paging?

So I’m planning on eventually going to 2 GB (mobo max) RAM from 1 GB, and I want to disable kernel paging once I do, because I’ve heard it can give a performance boost (and that I believe). Any reason not to do it or any general thoughts about it?

Edit: for clarification, this is not disabling general RAM paging. This is disabling having kernel…

Do I…

Virtual memory in virtualized machines (Swap File in VM?)

What are the opinions on allowing virtual memory inside a virtual machine?

For example, a host machine w/8 Gig of memory, I could run 4 VMs each w/2 Gig (roughly) and there would be no host swapping. However, in each VM I could have a 2Gig page file so the virtual server had 4Gig of usable memory, 2 physical 2 virtual.

OR… I could give…

Any reason not to disable the Windows pagefile given enough physical RAM?

The question of disabling the Windows pagefile has already been discussed quite a bit, for example here and here and here. People continue to upvote answers that say “you should not disable your pagefile even if you have plenty of RAM“, but I have yet to see any concrete, verifiable reasons being given for this advice. As…

How can I move the page file to another physical disk location?

I would like to know exact instructions for moving the page file from 1 disk location to another disk in Windows 7. I.e. from an SSD to a non-SSD drive.

I’ve spent about two hours searching – Google, Bing, Blekko – and read many forums. Please don’t post philosophical discussions on speed increases or why its a bad idea to disable…
