I installed StarWind RAMdisk on a Windows Server 2008 Datacenter machine and everything seemed to go well, added a RAM disk, and it claims success but no new drive appears in the system:

also, when I removed the device from the Starwind app, and then exited the RAMdisk manager, Windows task manager still reports the memory as being in use.

That`s weird. We never faced such issues before, to be honest.
May I ask you if you have tried to connect to it manually?
