    Hi, I am Van. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Windows user like you. I'll be glad to help you today.

    To change the value of your PC's virtual memory. Press Windows key + I then navigate to System > About > Advanced system settings. In the System Properties window click the Advanced tab, click Settings under Performance. In the Performance Options window click the Advanced tab then click the Change button under Virtual Memory. In the Virtual memory window, uncheck the Automatically manage paging file size for all drives. Once done select Custom size to set the value of your virtual memory.

    Best regards,

    Van

    To change the location or, in your case the size of the Page File, press the Windows Logo key+X and choose System > Advanced system settings (on the right) > Advanced Tab > Settings alongside Performance > Advanced Tab, then Change alongside Virtual memory, remove the tick from Automatically manage ...... and select your drive and disk space size.
