Your issue is that your pagefile is too small. Increase the size of your page file or allow Windows to manage the size. If you didn't manually disable it, you probably ran one of those "uber leet Windows tweaker!!!" apps or scripts that did it for you. Windows is not designed to run without a pagefile and many things depend on having one.

Here is a guide that explains how to enable your pagefile. I recommend setting it to "System managed size" in Windows 10 and 11. https://www.elevenforum.com/t/manage-virtual-memory-paging-file-in-windows-11.8618/
