A week or two ago, I seem to have installed a windows 8.1 update I shouldn't have.
Ever since that, I get a "Performance Option" dialog[^] EVERY FLUCKING time I start up Windows.
Sorry, in Swedish. For the minority of you who don't speak Swedish, here's a translation:
Performance options
Procesor scheduling
Choose how processor resources should be allocated
Prioritize performance for:
Programs / Background services
It doesn't seem to remember the option I chose the last time it came up (and why it has to come up at all when it hasn't been a problem before, I can't imagine) 
Also, at random intervals, but at least 4 or 5 times a day, another dialog pops up that says that windows has to close some programs because it's short on memory (and I don't have THAT much open). I normally say no and close the programs I want to close, but it's REALLY annoying.
And all of this happened just recently! Presumably after last MS Patch Tuesday Does anybody else have the same problem?

According to Google, something is corrupted such as the pagefile.sys.

I actually suspected it was something with the swap file, but I couldn't find anything on Google. Have you got a link? Does it suggest a way to repair it?

All these light bulb posts remind me of this joke;
Two factory workers are talking. The woman says, "I can make the boss give me the day off." The man replies, "And how would you do that?" The woman says, "Just wait and see." She then hangs upside down from the ceiling. The boss comes in and says, "What are you doing?" The woman replies, "I'm a light bulb." The boss then says, "You've been working so much that you've gone crazy. I think you need to take the day off." The man starts to follow her and the boss says, "Where are you going?" The man says, "I'm going home, too. I can't work in the dark."

How much wind could a wind breaker break if a wind breaker could break wind?

UK? Yes, I'm fine, thank-you.
Japan? No, the wife does the gold digging.
India? No, in here.
Jamaica? Nah, she does it entirely of her own volition.
Russia? Best not to!
