Windows 10 Guest VM slow after a few days

Recently I built a new PC and moved my VM's from the old to the new PC.  Old PC CPU was i7-7700 with 32GB RAM running Centos 7.  New PC CPU is i7-12700 wiith 64GB RAM and 1 TB M.2 SSD running Ubuntu 22.04.2.  I am running two Windows 10 guest OS with VM Player 17.  These VM's were created in a much older version of VM Player.  Ever since I did the upgrade I now get a message "VMware Player recommends 24 GB of system swap space ..." (see attached).  I currently only have 2GB swap in Ubuntu but when I look at the swap space use there is only 85MB of the 2GB being used.  Not sure why I would need more swap space.  Any help would be appreciated.
