Change the amount of shared memory used by WCS-based application

You can change the amount of shared memory used by WCS-based applications by increasing the appropriate parameter to the desired value. For example, you may need to increase shared memory to save large files using the LocalFile.fromBase64String method. Follow these steps.

Create or update the WebCaptureService.conf file in the %PROGRAMDATA%\Kofax\WebCapture folder.

Add the following strings to the file

[Common]
SharedMemorySize=10        	#Size of shared memory in MB
ExtraSharedMemorySize=60	#Size of extra shared memory in MB (default: 30); set it to the desired value depending on saved file sizes

Restart the Kofax Web Capture service.
