Windows 10: Getting Windows 10 to use more physical memory

Can I configure Windows 10 to load larger portions of processes in use thereby using more physical memory? Right now only about 10 of the 32GBs of physical memory is being used and lots of page faults are occurring. I have the page file set to 0MB.

32GBs of physical memory is installed. But Windows 10 appears to conserves physical memory by only loading small portions of programs and then loading other sections as needed. Loading missing portions generates page faults which take time to resolve and reduce the amount of time available for the CPU to crunch on CPU intensive plugins used by my Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
