  2. Error: Low Virtual Memory on Windows 10, How much virtual memory should I program?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    As you are facing issues with memory on your laptop, do let us know the following to assist you better:

    • When exactly you are getting this error code?
    • Have you tried any troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue?

    I would suggest you to try the following steps to change virtual Memory on your computer and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows key, type This PC and select it.
    • Right click on This PC and click on Properties.
    • In the left pane, click Advanced system settings. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    • On the Advanced tab, under Performance, click
      Settings.
    • Click the Advanced tab, and then, under Virtual memory, click
      Change.
    • Clear the Automatically manage paging file size for all drives check box.
    • Under Drive [Volume Label], click the drive that contains the paging file you want to change.
    • Click Custom size, type a new size in
      megabytes
      in the Initial size (MB) or Maximum size
      (MB) box, click Set, and then click OK. (Size depends up on the available storage space)
    Note: Increases in size usually don't require a restart for the changes to take effect, but if you decrease the size, you'll need to restart your computer. We recommend that you don't disable or delete the paging file.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.

  3. How to Increase Virtual Memory in Windows 10: A Quick Guide

    What is Virtual Memory?

    In computing, virtual memory is a memory management technique that provides an "idealized abstraction of the storage resources that are actually available on a given machine" which "creates the illusion to users of a very large memory." The computer's operating
    system, using a combination of hardware and software, maps memory addresses used by a program, called virtual addresses, into physical addresses in computer memory.

    Step 1: Go to Start Menu and click on Settings.

    Step 2: Now type performance on search bar and select
    Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows
    .

    Step 3: A new Window will open before you. Go to Advanced tab in it.

    Step 4: You’ll see a Virtual memory section in it. Click on
    Change

    Step 5: If the current setting is considerably less than the recommended, unselect the
    Automatically manage paging file size for all drives box on this window and click on
    Custom size.

    Step 6: Now enter the recommended value in the Initial Size box, and a larger figure in the
    Maximum size

    Step 7: Click on OK to save the changes.
