The maximum file size for NTFS on Windows 8 and 10 is larger, but it is unclear if a larger Page File is allowed.

Windows 8和10上NTFS的最大文件大小较大，但是尚不清楚是否允许较大的页面文件。

Followed by Ramhound:

其次是Ramhound：

Based on my research, the maximum Page File size for Windows 8 and 10 is identical to that of Windows 7. The process for changing the Page File’s size has not changed, which means the exact same logic is used.

根据我的研究，Windows 8和10的最大页面文件大小与Windows 7相同。更改页面文件大小的过程没有改变，这意味着使用了完全相同的逻辑。

And our final answer from Techie007:

我们对Techie007的最终回答是：

I believe that 32-bit versions of Windows can only handle Page Files up to 4GB in size.

我相信Windows的32位版本只能处理最大4GB的页面文件。
