Dear Manar,
 
The geotemp directory, as specified in Edit > Oasis montaj Settings... > Temporary File Directory, controls the amount of swap space set for applications in Oasis montaj. By default, the swap space is limited to half of the free space on the drive where the geotemp directory resides. 
 
If you have additional drives on your computer, then you can increase the swap space by creating a folder (for example, D:\geotemp\) on a drive with more available free space, and then specify this folder as the Temporary File Directory under Edit > Oasis montaj Settings.
 
To increase the swap space beyond half the free space on the geotemp drive, modify the SWP_FILE_MAX setting in the file C:\Oasismontaj\User\ini\geosoft.ini with the following procedure:
 
1.  Check the amount of free space available on your geotemp drive.  Note that half of this amount is currently being used.
2.  Add the following entry to the Oasismontaj/User/ini/geosoft.ini file under the [MONTAJ] section:
SWP_FILE_MAX=500
Where instead of '500', enter a number (in Mb) that is greater than the current swap space (i.e. half the free space) but less than the total free space.
 
Kindest regards,
