After I updated Windows 10 Pro 64-bit to the October 2018 version 1809 update. I can't set custom size or no paging file in virtual memory properties in drive C:. By after set custom size or no paging file and restart computer. Has system properties pop up on start up. And pagefile.sys in drive C: still automatically manage paging file size.

    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!

    As the first tutorial for moving the page file shows, you would not try to set a Page file for C, but instead choose No Paging File for C, then Set.

    Then you'd highlight the drive you want the paging file on, and set a System Managed paging file, then Set, then OK.

    If this doesn't work it may be a bug in 1809, which was pulled down due to serious problems. You can roll back Version 1809 in Settings>Update & Security>Recovery and then hide it until it matures using the Hide Updates Tool downloaded from here: https://www.howtogeek.com/224471/how-to-prevent...

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.

    @Greg I'm sorry for what I told you too little. I try another with your procedure. but I can't set no page file in drive C in 1809 update of Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. Has system properties pop up on start up. And pagefile.sys in drive C: still automatically manage paging file size. I can reduce page file size to 500 MB

    You didnt' say in your first post that you were trying to move the paging file, which requires another procedure here:
