(in 64-bit environment, 256TB, 2^48, only 48 of the 64 bits are used for addressing) This memory is virtual memory that mapped to actual physical memory. Every time memory is accessed, the conversion to the actual physical address is not a matter of concern for the process because the operating system and CPU take care of it through quite cumbersome processes. (It is implemented in collaboration between the OS and the CPU, such as the page table that divides the virtual address into 4KB units (pages) and maps them to actual physical addresses, ...) Windows manages the entire virtual address space of 4GB assigned to each process by
