    The readyboost tab is missing but is enabled in services.why?

    Hi,

    Device compatibility is one of the reasons why the ReadyBoost tab is missing. Kindly provide the following answers to the questions below to further isolate the issue:

    • What is the make and model of the flash drive that you are using for ReadyBoost?
    • Have you tried inserting the flash drive to another USB port?

    In the meantime, we suggest updating the driver for your USB drive. This will help us identify if the issue is caused by outdated drivers. Kindly follow the steps on this article to update it:

    We'll wait for your response.

    Can you insert a different SD card on it to check if the same issue will happen? Which version of Windows are you using on the other device where ReadyBoost tab appeared? Is it running Windows 10 as well? This will help us isolate if the issue is only happening
    with the SD card or the computer itself.

    Meanwhile, we suggest performing the System File checker as it can help detect possible corrupted or missing system files that can be causing the issue. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Open Cortana/Search.
    • Type in Command Prompt.
    • On the Search results, right-click on the best match for it and choose
      Run as administrator.
    • On the Command Prompt window, type in sfc /scannow then click
      Enter on your keyboard.
    • Restart the computer after the process, then check if ReadyBoost tab will appear.

    Update us with the outcome.

    Enabling Windows ReadyBoost on a flash-based drive Tablet PC

    Hi Cesar,

    If your system has a flash-based drive such as an SSD hard disk in it, using ReadyBoost isn't necessary. You will receive the message, "ReadyBoost is not enabled on this computer, because the system disk is fast enough that ReadyBoost is unlikely to provide
    any additional benefit." This is because a system with an SSD hard disk, along with SuperFetch, can outperform ReadyBoost.

    If you feel that your device's performance will improve by enabling ReadyBoost, we request that you take a moment to send us your suggestions through the
    Feedback Hub which is readily available with Windows 10. You can find it through
    Cortana or the Search bar.

    If you need further assistance, let us know.
