    Pagefile huge size problem


    Hi there,


    My pagefile seems to be quite large at 11264MB, 11GB~. I am really confused why this has happened, even though I manually set my SSD to off, my secondary HDD to off and manually set my first HDD to on with 400MB to 1912MB the recommended. See picture for reference Pagefile huge size problem b2973f5a-498b-47a7-9279-90b4a85222dd?upload=true.png

    Someone please help me with removing so much of that page file, so in total I can just have it the recommended value.

    -Thanks

    :)

    Huge pagefile

    You can't just delete the page file, you would go to system/advanced system properties/performance settings/ advanced tab Virtual Memory there you can uncheck the "Automatically manage Page file size" then you can set the size you want, maybe the 1 GB as suggested by using Max 1gb min 1gb or select no page file at all. As stated earler you don't really need a page file with a SSD.
