Hi, I think you're asking about using swapfiles when they're available. This is already support in the library, and exposed through the CLI as --single-swap-locations and you must provide a list of the swap files in the order windows expects them (there can be up to 15 swap files). They must also be provided as valid URIs (so file:///path/to/pagefile.sys). Please let me know if this resolves your question so we know whether to mark this as resolved...
