Hello,

I am Vatshal Gautam

When I set initial size to 16 and maximum size to 24, it says If you disable the paging file or set the initial size to less than 200 megabytes and a system error occurs, Windows might not record details that could help identify the problem. Do you want to continue

If you disable the paging file or set the initial size to less than 200 megabytes and a system error occurs, Windows might not record details that could help identify the problem. Do you want to continue?

Yes No

After that, when I click on no and set the initial size to 300 and set also maximum size to 300. Is it good? what's it benefits?

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Performance and system failures

    Virtual RAM is basically space on your hard drive that Windows can use as extra RAM, but drive access to data so much slower than RAM access to data.

    Hi VATSHAL Gautam,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    There are no benefits to be had from setting a manual size for Virtual Memory, it is always best to set that so Windows manually allocates the space on your drive, that space will grow and shrink depending on what you are doing on your PC and if Windows requires more or less virtual memory, setting a manual page file size can cause many problems an if it is set incorrectly, your PC may not be able to boot up.

    Increasing your Virtual RAM will not make your PC faster because drive access is much slower than RAM access, how much RAM do you have on your PC?
