    Hmm, won't windows delete pagefile.sys when i disable it ? Maybe i could even try to trick it and create fake pagefile.sys and exclude it, but i am not sure whether avg excludes using name only, or some other kind of method. There is an option though that even if file is moved or modified, it will still stay excluded. Worth giving it a try !

    it should be excluded by default. I know Avast excludes (?:\pagefile.sys)
    AVG should do this too
