From 60 to 10 is a decrease in swappiness. Is this what you want to do?– mchidJan 14 '19 at 17:36

You need to add admin:// to the beginning of the full path to your preferred file to use the GVfs admin backend.
Since you're trying to open the /etc/sysctl.conf file, you need to run
gedit admin:///etc/sysctl.conf

Well i did "gedit admin:///etc/sysctl.conf" without doing anything. It didn't do anything.– user889789Jan 14 '19 at 9:41

@Prabeshbhattarai Then you probably don't have
gvfs-backendsinstalled. Install it first by runningsudo apt install gvfs-backends, after that rungedit admin:///etc/sysctl.conf.– pomskyJan 14 '19 at 9:48 -
The gvfs is already installed. It says, "** (gedit:20502): WARNING **: 15:38:54.588: The specified location is not mounted"– user889789Jan 14 '19 at 9:54

Well, I don't know what was wrong but going manually through cd /etc and using sudo nano sysctl.conf to edit solved my issue.
