How to fix error 0x8007000e in Windows 11

Solution Steps

1. 1 Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. Go to the 'Processes' tab and sort by memory usage. Identify any process that is using an unusually high amount of memory (e.g., over 1 GB) and end it by right-clicking and selecting 'End task'. This frees up memory immediately and may resolve the error.
2. 2 Press Windows key + R, type 'sysdm.cpl' and press Enter. In System Properties, go to the 'Advanced' tab, click 'Settings' under Performance, then go to the 'Advanced' tab again. Under Virtual memory, click 'Change'. Uncheck 'Automatically manage paging file size for all drives'. Select your system drive, choose 'Custom size', and set Initial size to 2048 MB and Maximum size to 4096 MB. Click 'Set' and 'OK'. This increases the page file, giving your system more virtual memory to work with.
3. 3 Press Windows key + X and select 'Windows Terminal (Admin)'. Run the command 'sfc /scannow' and wait for it to complete. Then run 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth'. These commands repair corrupted system files that might be causing memory issues.
4. 4 Check for memory leaks in specific applications. If the error occurs with a particular program, check for updates or patches from the software vendor. Sometimes, restarting the application or your PC can clear a memory leak.
5. 5 If the problem persists, consider adding more physical RAM. Check your motherboard's specifications and install compatible RAM modules. This is a hardware solution that directly addresses the root cause.
