    Hi,
    In addition, the issue itself is related to a system file called pagefile.sys. Most of the time, the issue is that this file is corrupted.
    Always we could delete the [pagefile.sys] and reboot. Modify the registry to verify the paging file has a location.

    Modify the Registry below:
    HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management/PagingFiles
    Hope this helps and please help to accept as Answer if the response is useful.
    Best Regards,
    Carl

    I'd check the the system account (nt authority) has full control over the drives that have been selected.
