Increase virtual memory sizeĬlick to restart the computer when you are prompted to apply the new page file size. In both fields, enter without quotes “4000” or “3000” then click “Set” and then “OK”. For example, if you have 2 GB RAM, your virtual memory should be 4 GB or 3 GB. Check the actual amount of RAM installed on your computer and apply the rule. According to an old rule of thumb, the ideal page file size or virtual memory size should be double your RAM or 1.5x your RAM but you don’t really need to follow this.īut since you are having problems with Sandboxie, this rule is worth to try. To avoid fragmentation in the page file, enter the same value for both fields. In the Virtual Memory window, select “Custom size” then enter the values for “Initial size” and “Maximum size”. In Performance Options window, go to “Advanced” tab and click “Change” at the bottom under “Virtual memory”. Right-click “My Computer” and select “Properties” then go to “Advanced” tab and click “Settings” under “Performance”.

To fix the problem, try increasing your operating system’s virtual memory. This problem is pretty common among Sandboxie users.
