Increasing VRAM on Ryzen 5 5500u with a Hp Laptop?

[Crhistopher]

I have HP laptop and I need to increase the VRAM. The only problem is that the Registry Editor option doesn't work and the Bios doesn't have an option to increase it. What should I do?

What is your HP 14 inch Laptop PC 14-f1000 (2L1B0AV) machine ? It could be one of the following machines

Integrated video (iGPU) does not have room for keeping VRAM, it relies on System. System will work this out and allocate/assign spare/available system RAM to VRAM automatically when required up to max limit. System will also take VRAM back when required (the number is dynamic, not fix). During the good old days, we could do this from BIOS but now OS is smarter.

The following document shows Max shared RAM for Intel iGPU versions (I can't find a similar list from AMD).

Note: Last year people posted Youtube on internet saying they can change using Regedit. Many people try (including you) but the results are unpredictable.
