Hi, AleksanderBR

Welcome to Microsoft Community.





We understand that you are experiencing issues related to virtual memory. There are times when Windows automatically allocates to virtual memory may not be sufficient for you to use certain software, in this case, you can try to set it manually:

1. Open System Properties:

• Right-click on "This computer" or "My computer" icon and select "Properties".
  

2. Access Advanced System Settings:

• In the System Properties window, click "Advanced System Settings" on the left side.
  

3. View the performance settings:

• Under the "Advanced" tab of the "System Properties" window, click "Settings" in the "Performance" section.
  

4. Open the virtual memory settings:

• In the "Performance Options" window, click on the "Advanced" tab, then locate the "Virtual Memory" section and click "Change". Click "Change".
  

Adjust the virtual memory to the size you want to use.



Furthermore, you can submit your ideas and suggestions about Virtual memory through the Feedback Hub, and the development team will regularly review submissions for ideas or fixes.

Virtual Memory

No, it should not.

When you increase your virtual memory, you are increasing the amount of hard drive space
that is available to be used as virtual memory. Your computer may not have actually used all that space, and probably didn't.

 

Disk or memory space

Even though no programs or applications are running, some background services can show memory usage and disk usage. You may check which particular program is using the memory. Refer to these steps:



a) Press Windows key + X, select task manager.

b) Click on the ‘processes’ tab and it will show you show you a list of programs and services running and their corresponding memory usage and disk usage.

c) Check if any of the item listed is consuming more memory or disk usage than normal.

One of the methods to solve the problem is to increase the virtual memory. Make it equivalent to your RAM size for the initial size and twice of the initial size in maximum size and make sure you have the same amount of free space in your hard drive in each
drive.

If the issue persists you can place the computer in a
Clean Boot and check.
