How to relocate swapfile.sys?

Answer 1

Hello,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

You can use the Windows command Mklink to create a symbolic link pointing C:\swapfile.sys to another partition.

Please refer to the following link for specific steps: How to move Pagefile.sys and Swapfile.sys to another drive in Windows 8/8.1 or 10 (download3k.com)

It will show you how to move Swapfile.sys to another drive. You will need administrator rights to do this, so have your administrator credentials ready.

I hope the information above is helpful.

Best Regards,

Yanhong Liu
