Due to having low space on my C drive (which I've reserved for the operating system) I recently made the following changes to my pagefile configuration

enter image description here

However, nothing at changed in my C drive in terms of space (even after countless restarts) and the pagefile is still there (although I now have a copy on the D drive it seems).

Furthermore, I now get this warning everytime my boot up my computer

enter image description here

Now that I have changed the pagefile configuration for it to appear only in the D drive (which is a different drive altogether), should I be deleting it from the C drive? Based on the "date modified" it seems it is regenerated on the C every time I boot up my computer, while on the D drive it still lists the "date modified" as the day I originally made this change.

I would appreciate if someone can guide me to a fix for this issue. Thanks.

The message seems to suggest the file on D may have an issue.

Try:

  • disable the pagefile on D, reboot;

  • remove the pagefile.sys from D if it still exists after reboot;

  • (optional reboot);

  • set you pagefile back to D and remove the C pagefile
