1. Go to the Search box, type Advanced system settings and then hit the Enter button.

2. From the System Properties window, go to the Performance tab and then select the Settings button.

4. Unmark the Automatically manage paging file size for all drivers button. Click on the Custom size radio option.

After that, put an even larger value into the Maximum value box.
