Adding Virtual Memory

We want to create a virtual memory or which is also called Swap memory. We want to use that because you can run more programs without causing any interruption. Now virtual memory should be more or double to your ram size. So, if you guys have 2 GB of ram then your virtual memory will be 4 GB. Or let’s say that you have 16 Gb ram then you can just Give less to it like 8Gb.
In my case, I have 2 GB so I set 4gb as 4000 min and max. You can also do same, once you have done those press on apply and ok. Now restart your computer and you can feel some changes your PC might run faster right now.
