Systems and methods for improved write filter operation with provision for monitoring and prediction to delay system reboot

Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to prevent unexpected and/or uncontrollable system reboots that occur due to write filter overlay and/or RAM disk depletion within system memory of an information handling system by monitoring time-based write filter memory overlay and/or RAM disk usage. This information may be used to predict when the write filter memory overlay and/or RAM disk will fill up with data, and/or to take actions to prevent write filter memory overlay and/or RAM disk usage from reaching a threshold percentage or fractional utilization value that will trigger a system reboot. Those applications and/or data files that are primarily responsible for filling the memory of a write filter overlay may also be identified and stopped or restarted to prevent automatic system reboot due to write filter memory overlay usage.
