Yes, so that means you must create a minimum page file size of 32,768MBs plus (if I recall correctly) additional 2MBs for overhead.
So I have 360 gb of free space on system boot drive c so why the below error message

2020-07-24T01:47:49+00:00 Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is William. I'm a Windows technical expert. I'll be happy to help you out today.
Have you disabled or shrunk your page file? Without a page file that matches the size of your installed memory, Windows will not be able to dump the contents me memory to a dump file. By default, Windows creates a page file that is 1.5 x installed RAM (8GBs: 8192MBs x 1.5 = 12,288 size pagefile). To check your page file settings, in file explorer right-click This PC > Properties > Advanced system settings > under Performance select Settings > Advanced > under Virtual memory the default settings is Automatically manage page file....
I have 32gb of ram my page file is set to 5000mb so, I set this manually due to having 32gb of ram and a 3tb system drive.
