Whereas I agree in this case I don’t when it comes to the page file, the windows set up is never enough and generally sucks because it will still page to drives that are being readily accessed by your apps. IMO the OP’s problem is not that he can’t do it but he made changes to the Temp environment without indicating where it should page to and in what size blocks, like any app Windows can only follow instructions. There is also the pacing element, ram is possibly too fast.
