Hi, AleksanderBR

Welcome to Microsoft Community.





We understand that you are experiencing issues related to virtual memory. There are times when Windows automatically allocates to virtual memory may not be sufficient for you to use certain software, in this case, you can try to set it manually:

1. Open System Properties:

• Right-click on "This computer" or "My computer" icon and select "Properties".
  

2. Access Advanced System Settings:

• In the System Properties window, click "Advanced System Settings" on the left side.
  

3. View the performance settings:

• Under the "Advanced" tab of the "System Properties" window, click "Settings" in the "Performance" section.
  

4. Open the virtual memory settings:

• In the "Performance Options" window, click on the "Advanced" tab, then locate the "Virtual Memory" section and click "Change". Click "Change".
  

Adjust the virtual memory to the size you want to use.



Furthermore, you can submit your ideas and suggestions about Virtual memory through the Feedback Hub, and the development team will regularly review submissions for ideas or fixes.
