Swap partition

[Ference]

So i made a 10gb partition just for the page file. So all the virtual memory of the computer goes to the E partition. But what are the correct settings for it to work? or does it even work? This is for a school project but i lost how to do it.

Paging files are allocated on a per partition basis they don't overlap. You either allocate a custom size which is typically recommended so Windows doesn't decide to do something silly like reserve 10-15 percent of your available partition space. So in short you just select the partition from the list and select either custom size (user sets the size and it does not change), system managed (Windows is responsible for allocating the paging file size and will extend it if need be), No paging file (If your system has an adequate amount of RAM it shouldn't be necessary to have a paging file at all.) If your system is low on RAM a paging file can help to improve performance as your most frequently used files will be stored there in the paging file.
