Hi! I apologize for the Russian language.
There are two problems.
1. Xp and 7-ke, Process lasso 8.2.0.0 <and later versions, deterrence does not work processes. Do not lower the priority of a background application loaded.
2. Specifically in the Xp 32 after the 6.0.0.98 version all terribly slow to load (the process ProcessLasso.exe). After loading the system boot prolasso last tray. But I wish that it would have been the first icon in the system tray on the right. You have to use the old version .. (

Is there a conflict with certain software on your XP system ?

Ok, will have to investigate a XP system further with 8.2 and above .

ok, I tested 6.1 and 8.4 on a core dual 2.1gh with 4gigs of memory and a HD , no SSD .
1) I found no issue with startup  , PL was up and running in a sec or so .
2) Had no problems with restraint working (Probalance) , got yellow bar's in graph showing when it kicked in .

So , at least on this XP 32bit system, didn't find any performance issues .

Here something you can try though , don't have GUI running at startup, set it up so only governor runs at log-in .
With logs, have it log only events you really need , bigger logs can tend to slow system compared to small log , (you can keep log disabled to if you don't need it 90% of time ). Make sure you clear log to .

PS: This was just quick test , will look a little deeper to see if we can reproduce your results , maybe on another XP system .

Especially for you, did the video. Which shows how the latest prolasso brakes on Xp. I checked on asus f80s and Acer Aspire 5733z, result is practically the same.
Just as there is no visible deterrent background process ...

1) Ok, will look into it little more.

2) you do realize the priority is lowered only temporary , so you might not catch it showing the lowering depending on update rate of task manger and you looking at it at right time .

not true. Continuing the process was loaded bandikam video by 75%. I showed it to the video. And the priority of the process all the time remained in the middle PL 8.6.6.8
  on PL6.0.0.98 it reduces to below-average!

Thanks for the report.

You can improve load performance by disabling the log, it's something on my radar right now. When the log gets to a certain size, if your hard drive is slow, it can cause Process Lasso's first display to be a bit slow.

I will review your video and report and see if I can determine what you are seeing with regards to the process priority change, or lack there-of. The priority should always be changed if a restraint occurs, for some period of time anyway, even if it's for a duration that is less than the GUI's refresh rate (so it never shows).

What I'll do is a good audit of XP this next version, we'll make sure it's running well in XP 32 and 64-bit, and try to retain support as long as possible. It is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain XP support since Microsoft dropped it, not to mention all the malware and app incompatibility issues with typical Windows XP installations. No user who cares about their security should be using Windows XP, but I guess that much is obvious.

I'll report back as I've investigated further.
Title: Re: several problems
Post by: edkiefer on August 17, 2015, 05:31:47 PM
I tried to reproduce with Prime95 , its dual core so I set it to use only 1, so 50% usage .
With ProBalance on and going back and forth with prime95 forground and back ground ,it is switching fine .
Normal priority with prime95 in focus and when not it goes below normal and stays as long as there a constant load .

Turn off ProBalance and its stays normal .
Try reset ProBalance setting in options >ProBalance setting>reset ProBalance defaults .

Also due know all processes that are not normal priority won't change by default, unless you set it in advanced settings .
So if a process default is below normal, nothing will happen priority wise .

It helped!


One problem solved!
It remains to solve the slow start (up to 15-30 seconds)  :-\
And also, under high load (when writing a video), at the opening of the interface, version 6.0.0.98 GUI is faster and does not hang. You've seen the video.

Good to hear a rest of default options fixed most issues.

On the slow startup, here is what i want you to try:

Uncheck the menu item 'View / Show process icons'.

This menu item requires Process Lasso go to disk to get the process icon for every running process. Especially if you have security software also scanning those requests, it can cause a slow down. Let me know the results.

Ok! Done. Nothing changed. In Task Manager, it is noticeable that the delay occurs with the launch of ProcessGovernor.exe

I'm going to guess and say it must be due to security software scanning these processes as they launch. What security software are you using?

Thanks!

I would not dismiss it so quickly. The behavior of security software varies wildly depending on the particular binary. Some it considers more suspicious than others, and one factor is how often it has been seen in the wild.

Post by: Jeremy Collake on August 18, 2015, 04:37:13 PM
Oh, ok, well that's strange. The governor should start instantaneously in all circumstances, so I'm not sure how to account for this.

As for ProcessLasso.exe, clearing the log and disabling logging may help, if disabling the process icons didn't.

I don't know if it will help but run startup setup option "reconfigure how PL starts" ,from options .
1)Set GUI /console manager(first option to "do not start at log-on"

2) Set second option, governor(core engine) to "start at log-on for all users" .
you can leave all the res default .

3) turn auto updates off , menu>updates >"check for updates every " >none .

See if that helps, you can still run GUI or update manually , its long shot but might help you .

If none of above helped , you could try a clean install of PL , uninstall it and make sure you remove/delete the config file and logs .
Once all user data is gone, reinstall and should be factory defaults and maybe better .

Yes, as long as it is the same files with the ISO from MSDN(except it is included most patch) and nothing deleted, then it is fine. :D

For the real-time, even if you disabled them, as long as their driver are loaded, they still working for filtering the data. :)

I think you may try using Process Monitor to check for the boot, it may be helpful for pointing why this happen. :D
(It may has some tutorial in Russian, you may search this function name in Russian to see did there are any of them. ;))

How are you observing the delay in processgovernor.exe? If it's not starting instaneously, how do you know, given that it has no window to go with it?

I am asking because it may be:

1. Appearance only
2. The startup order

Of course, ProcessLasso.exe is a different story.

Oh ok, after *system* start, that helps define the problem. We (or I) thought you meant *after* processgovernor.exe starts, there was some delay.

The ordering of startup processes is determined by the OS. In XP, we start via a registry key like most other applications.

If you want it to start before user login, you can install the governor as a service. Otherwise, you should be content with it starting as soon as the OS gets around to launching it.

There may be some way to re-order the XP startup items by adjusting the ordering of the registry values, but I'll have to research that to give you a for-sure answer.

during boot windows, prolasso loaded for a long time, the last (the icon appears in the system tray).
In version 6.0.0.98 prolasso loaded the very first!
Title: Re: Problems in XP 32-bit [One fixed by Options reset, other pending]
Post by: Jeremy Collake on August 19, 2015, 03:04:27 PM
The system tray icon is ProcessLasso.exe, not ProcessGovernor.exe . So, let's take ProcessGovernor.exe out of the equation, I think you just misunderstood the fact that it is *not* responsible for the system tray icon.

As for any delay on the startup load of ProcessLasso.exe, it may have something to do with the install order.

Behavior changes since v6 are certainly also possible, but if so, they are there for a good reason.

You should ask why it is important to have the system tray icon show up before other processes that start at user login? Note that the governor will begin enforcing rules as soon as it is loaded in the background.

For these reasons, I don't believe this is any critical problem. You can always use v6 if you choose.

In practice, (it shows in the Task Manager video) icon on the taskbar will only appear after you start ProcessGovernor.exe !!

I do not know what you've done with prolasso after version 6.0.0.98, but before that, everything worked and run fast!

Ed just mentioned to me that you use a Startup Delay application.

What these kinds of applications do is force other programs to delay before they auto-start.

Could that be what you are seeing?

If you find it difficult to find the cause of the problem in the new version prolasso on Xp, change the specially For Xp - optimized version 6.0.0.98 (add at least SmartTrim).

Post by: Jeremy Collake on August 19, 2015, 03:41:21 PM
Ok, glad to know that's not it.

However, I'm still inclined to think Process Lasso starts as fast as it possibly can on *your* system.

Your system has some major problems aside from this:

1. Far too many applications installed with overlapping purposes.
2. More than one security suite. This is an absolute no-no. More than one security suite can cause conflicts, not to mention severe performance degradation. It doesn't make you doubly protected, it just gives you double the trouble. If you want a multi-engine scanner, I suggest herdProtect.

So, I don't believe there's any bug in Process Lasso v8 with regards to how fast it starts after user login. It's at the mercy of all this other stuff you have starting up.

If version 6 truly starts any faster, it is due to a change in the way Process Lasso behaves, and surely the difference is no more than a couple seconds, and is there for a good reason.

And we can not add SmartTrim to version 6, I'm sorry.

The problem is we do have XP systems, here and your issue is not happening , so it must be caused by whats loaded on the OS .
that is in simplest terms , I know that doesn't help you directly, but you say other Russian friends are having similar problems, see if you have installed app the same .
your list of tune up and anti mailware/AV is long . I see some you have disabled in pic of startup delay .
I would uninstall all you don't use, check your services for anything running there too as far as tune up utilities , some add services .

Maybe try an run Hijackthis app, there are sites that just help users with these kinds of things (maybe Russian ones too ).

That is about all I can think of now .

The system tested by different antivirus scanner. All clear. Tested and integrity of system files. Also fine


I do not understand one thing. What is the fundamental difference between the PL after version 6.0.0.98? What do you fundamentally changed, that everything was so bad for some Xp? You about this that does not speak ...
