Windows 10: How do I fix the temporary paging file pop-up for my win 10 laptop.

this is the pop-up I get when I turn on my laptop

:)

 

How do I resolve the error message: Windows created a temporary paging file on your computer

I booted my machine, and suddenly got this pop-up:

When I close the pop-up, I see the Performance dialog saying Total paging file size for all drives: 0 MB. I've never changed pagefile settings, and the Change... button shows that it's set to Automatically manage paging file size for all drives.

I've tried to set to the different settings belowand reboot, but always got the same popup:

1. Select drive, set to system manage size
   
2. Select drive, set to No paging file
   
3. Custom size: Initial: 5000MB, Maximum: 10000MB
   

This answers.microsoft.com post suggests I:

• Disable pagefile - Even if I do, I get the same pop-up
  
• Delete c:\pagefile.sys - can't get deleted
  
• Set partition pagefile attribute using DISKPART - but HELP ATTRIBUTES DISK says READONLY is currently the only disk flag that may be changed.
  

Specs

• Machine: Lenovo X230, 16GB RAM
  
• Disk: Samsung Evo 850, formatted as a single C: drive.
  
• OS: Windows 10 (version 1511) 64-bit
  

 

Page File

Set minimum and maximum to a constant number as suggested by others, that will help reduce fragmentation on the drive coz of different page file sizing.
