Pagefile always reverts to default on C drive
Hello
I went into the settings to change the pagefile location & size. I am aware how to navigate into that location and change the setting.
I have a drive P: called PAGE specifically for that.
I have 32 GB memory and the P: drive 60 GB in size.
I change the settings to that drive and specify 48000 MB size. I make sure the "automatically manage page file sizes for all drives is unchecked. I set the C: drive to none, clicking the "set' button after each change.
I reboot the machine and it seems to be as expected.
When I reboot again the Pagefile is always back on the C drive.
When I go back into the Virtual memory box the 'Automatically manage paging file size for all drives' is checked again even though I specifically unchecked it.
It is important for space & performance I use the P: drive.
I do I make sure the machine always uses it and does not revert back to default.
As far as I am aware there is nothing physically wrong with and drive.
I am using windows 7 64 bit professional.
It is extremely frustrating.
