Have you had a try at turning your PC off and turning it on once more? This simple and easy trick can fix all types of Windows 10 issues, including the Windows 10 memory management stop code.

  1. Update Windows 10

Outdated framework files can cause surprising errors in the performance. Checking for a pending update is a fast and simple approach to check if that is the reason that might be causing this issue.

Here’s how to do it:

-Hit Windows key + I to open the Settings.

-Go down to Update & Security, go to Windows Update for any pending updates.

-If there is any pending update, click on Update and let the process run.

P.S- Make sure to save any important files, then press Restart.

  1. Run MemTest86

The Diagnostic tool of the Windows Memory will not show you any error. But if you are sure, the error is being caused by the system RAM, then use MemTest86 to check where the error lies.

  1. Update Your Drivers

The best way to fix the error is to update the system drivers. Software and hardware replacement often comes with new drivers, and this replacement command might not have been detected by the system. In that case, driver faults take place especially in Windows 10. But who’s to say that this won’t happen.

Here’s a step by step:

  1. Update Your GPU Drivers

Another recurring theme that recurs in BSOD threads is that old or super new GPUs cause the BSOD. The main limelight is on the memory management stop code, where you can also search for and find a video memory management-specific stop code, too. The video memory management internal stop code is 0x0000010E. And this indicates a defective GPU driver. To update the GPu drivers to the latest version, just simply head to the manufacturer’s website and download the update.

In case you’re uncertain what GPU you are utilizing, type dxdiag in your Start search bar and select what you need. At the point when the DirectX Diagnostic Tool opens, select the Display tab.

  1. Run CHKDSK

Running a Check Disk in the Start menu CMD mode is the best suggestion. Run the CMD as admin. Or you can just press Window key + X, then select CMD from the menu.

Type the command chkdsk /r and Enter. This aforementioned command will scan the whole system for errors and fix any repairable issues along the way.

  1. Run SFC

We’ve already told you how to enter the Command Prompt. Again run as Admin and enter the command:

-Type the command and press Enter: DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

-Wait for the command to finish (takes upto 20 minutes)

-When the loading finishes after 20 minutes or more, type sfc /scannow and press Enter.

  1. Reset Your System Hardware

The last solution would be to physically reset the system hardware. Try this solution only if other solutions don’t work.
