Played around with BCDedit and now need help

Dear Bali Anna,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community.

I understand how frustrating it can be to experience system slowdowns and crashes after making changes. Let's work together to resolve this issue without resetting your PC.

The command bcdedit /set increaseuserva modifies the amount of virtual address space for user-mode processes, which can cause system instability if set incorrectly. To reset this change, you can follow these steps:

1. Press Win + X and select "Command Prompt (Admin)" or "Windows PowerShell (Admin)".
   
2. Type the following command and press Enter:
   
   
3. After executing the command, restart your PC to apply the changes.
   

These steps should reset the virtual address space setting to its default value, which should help resolve the system instability and crashes you are experiencing.

If the issue persists, it may be beneficial to check for any other potential issues that could be affecting your system's performance. Please let me know if you continue to experience issues after trying these steps or if you need further assistance.
