Clear the Page file at shutdown - Windows 7

• Two hard drives - what to set the page file to?

  I have two hard drives, Windows is installed on C:, what should I set my page of the settings file for better performance? Hard drive space is not a problem, I have a 250 GB and a 1 TB drive, both are less than half full. I have 3.25 GB of RAM DDR2.

  I heard move the swap file on a second hard drive is beneficial, because the OS files and the page file could be consulted at the same time. Defining a very large page file or file page on both drives will hurt performance? What is a variable size compared to a matter of constant size?

  It shouldn't be noticeable performance difference if the swap file is bigger than "necessary".

  If your system can it take into account, it is considered generally to be a performance advantage to put the file on a different physical disk than the operating system is installed, provided the other player does not see many IO already.

  By using a constant size / fixed can eliminate fragmentation of the file page that can occur if it is sized dynamically.

  If you anticipate relying heavily on the swap file, maybe reconsider and add more RAM to the system, if possible, or upgrade to a 64-bit computer and the operating system that is able to handle more RAM.

• Where is the page files?

  I am running Vista Home premium. I want to reduce the size of my partition of my boot c: drive. I want to find my page files and move them to another drive and then reduce the size of the partition.

  Where are they?

  How can I see them?

  How can I move them?

  Hello

  The page file (Pagefile.sys) is a hidden file on your hard drive that Windows Vista uses as if it were a memory (RAM). The file exchange and physical memory is the virtual memory. By default, Windows stores the paging file on the boot partition (the partition that contains the operating system and its support files). The default paging file size is equal to 1.5 times the total RAM. However, this default configuration is perhaps not optimal in all cases. This article describes how to configure the paging file for optimization of the system and recovery.

  You can follow the steps in the link given by bob.

  Alternatively, you can follow the steps to move the paging files.

  1. Log the computer as an administrator.
  2. Click Startand then click Control Panel.
  3. Click performance and Maintenanceand then click System.
  4. Click on the Advanced tab, and then, under performance, click settings.
  5. Click the Advanced tab, and then under virtual memory, click change.
  6. In the drive [Volume label] list, click one drive other than the one on which Windows is installed (Windows is usually installed on the drive C). Under Total paging of the size of file for all drives, note the value that is displayed next to recommended.
  7. Click custom size, and type the value recommended in the initial size (MB) box.
  8. Type the maximum size that you want to allow for paging in the size maximum (MB) , and then click set.
  9. In the drive [Volume label] box, click the drive on which Windows is installed (usually drive C), and then use one of the following steps:
     • If you don't want a swap to disk file, click No paging file, and then click set. A message similar to the following message is displayed:

  If the pagefile on volume C: has an initial size of less than 126 megabytes, then the system may not be able to create a debugging information file if a STOP error occurs.
  Continue anyway?

  Click Yes.

  1. • If you want to keep the minimum size of the file on the drive, click custom size, and type a value that is equal or greater than the amount of RAM in the computer in the initial size (MB) box. Type the same value in the box size maximum (MB) , and then click set.
  2. The following message appears:

  The changes you did ask you to restart your computer before they can take effect.

  Click OK, click OK, click OK, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.

  Hope it helps you to solve the problem.

• When you use find on the page (ctrl + F on Windows) it is a message indicating the total number of matches. What does the first number?

  When you use find on the page (ctrl + F on Windows) it is a message indicating the total number of matches. What does the first number?
  I'm more interested in the case when this number is smaller than the total.

  Hello

  I think you mean the text stating "x of there matches", to the right of the box where you entered the search term.

  The first number ("x" in my example above) indicates the current entry highlighted on the page that matches the search phrase. If you use the upper and down arrows to navigate through the instances of this term on the page, you will see this number go up and down.

  I hope this helps, but if not please come back here and we can look at another solution for you.

• The access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" are not secure

  Hey there
  Had a minor shock after I discovered that the access permissions default to the "limited users" in "C:\Windows\" and "C:\Program files\" are raised by the image automatically XP - Pro installed on my Tecra A6.

  Default access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" for "A limited number of users" should not have permissions "File/writing data Creation" or "Creation of folders/adding data. This opens up for what is called dll redirection attacks (ref: http://blogs.msdn.com/aaron_margosis/)

  When you install a Win XP a normal retail or OEM Windows XP cd these two folders are special protected by this measure (not allowing the permissions listed for limited users). Installation procedure of your image work it around (in established Microsoft) measure and open breaches in security.

  Now I have to drop all these permissions and hope that all of the utilities of your work for limited users after that that, otherwise you get a very unhappy customer on your hands. ;)

  Hi Henrik

  Thanks for the information. I have a common user of Toshiba and I have never heard of such attacks to redirect m .dll.
  However, I think that if each user install antivirus software (nothing unusual at the time; everyone should use) and activate the Microsoft Windows updates and OS firewall should be safe.

  Greetings :D

  PS: I read in this forum that sometimes some Toshiba applications as energy saving does not work under limited account.

• Remote Desktop error: the system cannot find the specified file. C:\WINDOWS\system32\ < LANG_NAME > \mstsc.exe.MUI

  Came across an interesting problem this morning. After starting my PC from various applications (OutLook 2002, Management Studio of SQL Server 2008, etc.). I was able to connect to a server by using Remote Desktop (RDP, alias). On trying to connect to a second system, I started getting the following error message:

  The system cannot find the specified file. C:\WINDOWS\system32\\mstsc.exe.MUI

  Will always be connected to the server, I tried to launch a second instance using RDP, but received the same error message.

  I googled the error and found different solutions (the best solution to examine ishttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/itproxpsp/thread/164d1e0b-51e6-4201-9dc2-3f4a0ccb14e5), however, none of the solutions seemed to work.

  I tried checking the virus/malware, etc, but nothing was found. I tried to re - load the dll and the exe (s), but still not received the error message.

  The next solution was to try to see what can be changed on my system (new programs, etc.). I noticed there is an update downloaded to my system (C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log): AutomaticUpdates content success install successful and Restart required for the following update: update for Windows XP (KB969084)... the update is related to remote desktop.

  I rebooted the system, still not received the RDP error messages. Is I did a complete "install updates and shut down ', and then restarted my system that started working again.

  For the record, here is some information on my system:

  XP Professional: Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.091208 - 2036: Service Pack 3)

  c:\windows\system32\mstsc.exe: 6.1.7600.16385

  I wanted to just post this in case someone else runs into a similar problem...

  Thank you!

  Argue for your limitations and of course they will belong. -Richard Bach, Illusions

  I have a machine with the same problem

  XP Professional: Version 5.1 (Build 2600

  I installed the update for Windows XP (KB969084).

  It does not, but a reboot is required because the system is running on the old dll

  Thanks for the info!

  OK problem solved.

  I ran the scan of the updated and all updates already installed.

  I checked the list of updates installed and already had KB2592687, KB2574819 installed.

  However, when I looked under installed updates, it showed KB2592687 and 3 others in English while I have a Dutch version of Windows.

  

  So I decided to uninstall the updates English 3 so I could reinstall it again.

  "Note that after uninstalling these 3, Remote Desktop already worked again.

  Apparently, these 3 uninstalling uninstalled a lot more, because after a reboot, there were 10 updates available instead of only 3 that I uninstalled). And after installing them and another restart there was even more updates available. Overall, it took three update sessions and restarts all up-to-date again.

  Although the list of installed updates again 3 updates in English, Remote Desktop works now. So obviously something has went wrong with one of the previous sessions of Windows Update.

• Try to calculate the size of the PAGE file

  This is an academic exercise. I am trying to determine why my PAGE file size is what it is. Currently, he is registered to 28,000,331 bytes. (He's alone). Here are the facts:

  3 dense dimensions, stored members are 17 * 20 * 5, for a total of 1,700 * 8 = 13 600 bytes.

  The actual maximum blocks are 19 800. The maximum reported are 24 750.

  I have disabled compression for ease of calculation.

  There is only 1 block no missing.

  I use SER60 as my guide in the section estimate disk and the memory required. However, when I use the planned calculation:

  Number of blocks * (size of data block expanded + 72 bytes)

  I don't get anywhere near the number of bytes listed for the PAG file. I realize that I am not to mention the rest of the database files and do not know if this calculation is only for the PAG files or all files. I am not very interested in the size of the entire database, just the file PAG. So my questions are:

  1. is the calculation provided for all files or just the file PAG?

  2. If the answer to 1 is Yes, is there a separate calculation, that I can use to determine the size of the PAGE file only?

  Take a look at NUMBLOCKSTOEXTEND in the technical reference on Essbase.  We had a long conversation that addressed this issue on Network54 recently: http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1374608752/11-1-2-2+Fragmentation

  Short answer is that Essbase allocates file space .pag in 2048-block pieces, which is the default value of NUMBLOCKSTOEXTEND 11.1.2.2.  Calculate how many blocks (including header block 72 bytes) integrate 28,000,331 bytes and you will see that this is almost exactly 2048.

  With compression on it more difficult (for me, at least) to understand how Essbase arrives with the size of the average disk blocks to use as the size on the disk with compression on is not constant.

• size of the page file and the hibernation Windows 7

  I've recently updated the RAM in my computer to 16 GB.  I noticed that my pagefile.sys is now 15.9 GB and file hiberfil.sys is 12.0 GB.  I do not hibernate.  My computer has two physical hard drives (essentially a disk OS/program and a data reader).   What is the amount appropriate for the page on the operating system drive file size and is at - there a way to remove or reduce the size of the hiberfil.sys file?  I plan on migration of my OS drive to an SSD in the near future and wish to reduce the footprint of these two files for migration.

• I have two 2 physical HDD (logic 1 = 2 partitions, 1 with partion unique); on all the page files will improve performance, or is an annex of page file?

  My laptop has two 2 750 GB HDD (plus a 8 GB SSD Express Cache). The first HARD disk is partitioned into 2 letters two logical sectors (~ 275 GB & 375 GB {more system/recovery NTFS partitions 2}), assigned drive C (main system partition), and D (logical partition) and the second physical disk E (750 GB). Win7Pro64 created a pagefile managed system on the C drive, but not on readers D & E. Y has an advantage, or more importantly, a disadvantage to the creation of swap files on the D & E readers?

  I am not opposed to using all the 375GB logical partition on drive D as a swap file if this can help performance, and/or create a pagefile on the E drive the same size as on the C drive, once again, to help performance.

  Can someone help me with the best approach?

  Also, I have an Intel i7-3610QM with 16 GB of RAM and a GPU Nvidia GeForce GTX G675M with 2 GB of RAM.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It seems that there are a few system files that have trouble.  One of them being mstsc.exe, I wish you find spyware or infection by the virus first, before you try the next step.  Please see the sticky thread in the security forum.  MVP offers some good advice how to remove these problems.

  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistasecurity/thread/fa30853d-719a-4265-9e7b-9287567d31e3

  If everything is clean, we will try a repair installation to replace the problem files and also to ensure that other system files are good.

  The 'repair' installation (upgrade on-site) will not affect your installed programs or data.  Just make sure that you are already connected to your computer when you start the installation.  Do not boot from the DVD.

  If the installation does not start automatically when you insert the DVD, run setup.exe from your DVD player.

  • When the Setup program starts and the install now screen, click install now.
  • Note When you receive the important Get updates for installation message, click go online.
  • Click upgrade when the which type of installation you want? appears

  Please let us know if this solves the problem for you.
