How to resolve the error in launching git

Question

I have installed the latest git(version 2.25.0) in Windows. However, I got an error while I am executing any of the git commands either in Powershell or in Command Prompt.

After executing the git command, the terminal produces :

Error launching git: The paging file is too small for this operation to complete

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the software and restarted the system after installation. Can anyone help me to resolve this? Thanks in advance

AS per my understanding error here seems to be with the Windows page file and not Git.

Try the following steps below to resize the page file.

Start, Control Panel, System

The system properties applet will appear, select the advanced tab

In the performance tab, click settings

The performance dialog will appear, click the advanced tab click the change button.

You will now (assuming that you are a local admin) be able to increase the size of you virtual memory.

Change the paging size and click set.

Click OK

Click OK

Click OK

At this point, the machine may need to re-start.

Reference: Paging file is too small for this operation to complete
