    Hi Leianna,

    I do not know why Flock is consuming so much virtual memory for you!
    Normally Windows is automatically setting the virtual memory, but you can set it up manually also:

    I have a Swedish Operating System, but I will hereby translate into English as good as I can:
    Start -> Control Panel -> System ->Advanced ->Performance -> Press button "Settings" -> Advanced -> Virtual Memory -> Press button "Change"

    You will now get a window showing all your drives:

    Before doing anything here, make a note of the settings, so you can change it back, if needed!

    Highlight a fixed drive (not a drive attached to a USB port)
    Fill in Original Size in MB:
    Fill in Maximal Size in MB:
    Press the button "Activate"
    You will now be requested to reboot your computer!

    Note: If you have many fixed drives, you can split the virtual memory on several fixed drives and fill in Original Size & Maximal Size for each highlighted one, prior to pressing the button "Activate". If you have many fixed drives, it is an advantage to avoid placing any virtual memory on your system drive (normally: C :\).
