Hello,
I've the same problem and my controller is a jmicron. Unable to set paging file.
Building Xendesktop with 1809 and I have this issue. I can't move the pagefile to any other drive.
Built Xendesktop with 1803 and no issue.
I hope somebody check this
This issue is seen only on PCs with specific storage controllers. Mahfoud is seeing this on his Jmicron storage controller. Can people who are hitting this issue, please share their storage controller information (vendor name and/or PNP device ID)?

Hi Cut,
Did this problem exist for you in 1803?
Can you check the value of this registry key and let me know?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\PagefileOnOsVolume
Thanks!
