I am trying to change the pagefile on my new servers from Automatically manage paging file size for all drives to Custom - C: drive Initial size 4096 and Maximum size 4096
If I can, I would like to be able to put it back to the original configuration too.
Here is what I have so far with the error I am getting.
PS C:\> Set-WmiInstance -Class Win32_PageFileSetting -Arguments @{name="C:\pagefile.sys"; InitialSize = 4096; MaximumSize = 4096}
Set-WmiInstance : Generic failure
