Hey Guys
I have installed a 16gb ram but I noticed that My PageFile has 6912Mb. Is it normal or shall I reduce it ???. It shows the recommended RAM usage as 2937 MB.

Right now, I have left it to system managed.

Please help. Thank you

Hello

It is always recommended to let Windows manage the Pagefile automatically. That said, your configuration is absolutely correct.

There might be situations when managing the Pagefile manually helps. You can find more information on this here.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!!
