If you are choosing to set a custom amount, you need to take your total RAM amount and multiply it by 1. Set the maximum size to 3 times your total RAM amount. Follow the steps above to add a custom amount that you want if the automatic amounts are too high. Out of all the various reasons you want to change your page file amount, achieving something that works well might involve some trial and error. But in my experience, the system default has worked fine in most cases.
You can also set the static size of the paging file. In this case, it cannot be fragmented, and therefore, under no circumstances will reduce the speed of Windows. When the computer is running, some data, if necessary, falls into the paging file. It is possible to avoid its full filling with the help of timely cleansing. To do this, it is enough to install the function of clearing the paging file before each shutdown of the computer. To do this, you will need to follow a few simple steps the instructions below are simultaneously applicable for Windows 7 and Windows This method works only for users of professional versions of Windows and higher, since in simpler operating system variations, for example, in Windows Home, there are no local policies.
Expand the "Local Policies" folder on the left and open "Security Settings". Find in the list the policy "Shutdown: clear the paging file of virtual memory" and click on it by double-clicking the left mouse button. Put a marker next to the "Enabled" option and save the changes using the "Apply" button. Now, before each shutdown of the computer, the operating system will automatically clear the paging file. The process of transferring the paging file is similar to the above steps for enlarging it.
In addition, in Windows, you can simultaneously create auxiliary storage for RAM on several hard drives. It should be noted that this will not improve the performance of your computer in any way, so it is not recommended to use multiple paging files at once.
To transfer it, you need to do a few simple steps the instructions for Windows 7 and Windows 10 differ only in the initial stage. If there is no shortcut on the desktop, open the "Control Panel", go to the "System and Security" section and use the "System" item. Select the used disk with the paging file from the list, apply the "No paging file" marker and save the action using the "Set" button.
We select a disk different from the previous one and set all the necessary values, as in the instructions above. The process for growing the paging file in Windows 11 is not very different from previous operating systems.
The instructions below indicate all the steps to increase it. Go to the very bottom of the menu on the left and press the button "About" About. Scroll down the window that opens and use the "Advanced system settings" item to move on. There are hundreds of online sites and optimization pages that claim the page file size should be 1. However, this does not take into consideration other important factors and system settings unique to your computer.
Again, let Windows choose what to use instead of relying on some arbitrary formula that worked on a different computer. Storing the page file on a different partition of the same drive as Windows increases the hard drive seek times and reduces system performance.
Configuring your page file to be located o n a different drive or partition may deliver a slight increase in performance. If you plan on putting the page file on a separate drive, create a partition large enough for it and only keep the page file in that partition. For almost every Windows user, we still recommend letting Windows manage the page file on the primary drive.
Moving the page file to a slower hard drive can cause the computer to have to wait for the slower HDD to catch up to the SSD. No, again this reduces the system performance. While it is true the access times on flash memory can be faster than a hard drive, the transfer speeds over USB are much slower.
See viewing Windows virtual memory or page file settings for further information about accessing this information. Before changing your page file settings, make a note of the current settings so that you can change it back later if your computer is not performing well.
