A page file is required for some system functions to work properly, e.g. saving crash dumps in case of a BSOD. Though I'm wondering if this even works when the page file is on the RAM disk. It's possible that the RAM disk driver is already stopped when a BSOD occurs - preventing it from working properly as if page file was disabled.

BTW: Virtual memory is the sum of physical plus page file (or swap space). So you can't disable virtual memory because it's always there.

Dalai,

I don't think that's the way the term is used in Windows.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

I have 32GB memory, I don’t play any large games, only a few times to edit pictures and videos. Usually, most of the time is not even used in half of this memory, I tried disable pagefile, but chrome (version 86) will crash.
I have searched various discussions of Pagefile, which seems to affect the system and certain software, so I set it to 1GB and migrate to Ramdisk. I have never encountered those strange crash problems.
