In advanced "System Properties" select the Tab "Advanced"  and click the Button "Settings"

3.) What should be when you move the pagefile.sys to another disk on Windows-10!

When you move the pagefile.sys  im Windows-10 to another disk, it should be no external disk! At best, use the fastest hard disk on the operating system!

Windows 10 can start without paging file. And the paging file (virtual memory) can be adjusted if necessary again.

4.)Recommended paging file size for windows 10!

The old rule "use the double size of the RAM" is for old computers with 1 or 2 GB of RAM.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to how much page file or swap space you need. It all depends on the programs you use and what they need. If you’re unsure, sticking with your operating system’s defaults is almost always a good idea.
