Thanks @Jeremy and @login404 for the detailed explanation about the "Foreground Boost" mechanism!

I've also encountered a similar situation when disabling bitsumsessionagent.exe without realizing it affects multiple critical features like this.

If you want to optimize the system, you could keep this service but adjust the Task Scheduler to run it with lower priority (e.g., trigger at system startup instead of running continuously).

P.S.: This thread is super helpful for Process Lasso users!                                                          block blast

(EDIT)

I found a recent user's experience re: benefits of Process Lasso improving their game performance on a system struggling with DPC latency issues:

It's great to hear how Process Lasso has positively impacted your game performance! Tackling DPC latency issues can be a game changer, and it's impressive to see tools like this making a real difference.

Well, you gentlemen are not crazy. nProtect is blocking the service from running.

Hello,
Is it possible to block, something like powershell.exe, wscript.exe etc,so called lolbins via PL?
I've done local group policy rule, something like this:
%LSYSTEMDRIVE%\*\*.vbs
Which should prevent any vbs running systemwide, however i don't trust it(it can be reversed by a malware).
So it there a way in PL to block powershell.exe

Process Lasso / Re: Bug for foreground detecti...

Last post by kundewayne - June 02, 2025, 06:12:29 AM

This was a bug I reported a long time ago and still seems to be present.

If you rapidly switch from one window to another and back to the original, there's a chance that Process Lasso won't realize that the window you switched back to is in the foreground and won't properly apply Foreground Boosting if you have it enabled.

I appreciate you drawing attention to this matter. It is obviously essential for the efficient administration of windows, so let's hope that it is handled as soon as possible!

Process Lasso / Re: Affinity settings not foll...

Last post by walsha02 - June 02, 2025, 05:37:06 AM

That makes sense! Anti-cheat systems can complicate CPU affinity assignments. Assigning a CCD-based affinity to Steam.exe is a smart move. It should help ensure your games run smoothly without straying onto unwanted cores.

Not really. ProBalance is designed to maintain system responsiveness by temporarily de-prioritizing background processes when the system is under high CPU load.

I'm unsure about the syntax and how it can help distinguish between my VMs based on their comments. Any specific examples would be really helpful!

Process Lasso / Re: Dynamically change core as...

Last post by stevelesage - May 30, 2025, 05:14:58 AM

I have an Intel 14700KF, with it's P-cores overclocked as follows: P1-3: 5.8Ghz, P4-5: 6.2Ghxz, P6-8: 5.6Ghz.

For a particular program, is there any way to set Process Lasso so that it can first utilize the fastest P4-5 cores, and only if these cores are maxed out, then use the next fastest P1-3 cores, and then only if these cores are also maxed out, then use the slowest P6-8 cores?

I think another way of asking this question is: Can Process Lasso dynamically change core assignment, based on overall CPU workload?. If the E-cores are off and hyperthreading is on, then each logical core would represent 6.25% of the workload, and so Process Lasso would set the following rules:

* If workload <= 25%, use the fastest P4-5 cores (6.25% * 2 * 2 HT)
* If workload > 25% and <= 62.5%, use P4-5 and the next fastest P1-3 cores.
* If workload > 62.5%, use all cores.

I was thinking some regular expressions could maybe achieve this, but wasn't sure how to dynamically change core assignment. brawl stars online

This would be very useful so that a particular game would always be using the fastest cores first.

Finally, if this is possible in Process Lasso, could there be a latency penalty (that may affect FPS) when performing the calculation of when to switch from one set of cores to the next set of cores?

Thank you very much!

No, Process Lasso cannot dynamically adjust core usage based on CPU load thresholds or core speeds. You can set affinity to use the fastest cores first — but switching affinity dynamically requires external scripting. Such dynamic switching could cause latency or performance spikes.

Hey everyone,

I started using Process Lasso after hearing a lot about it & I am a bit overwhelmed with all the settings & options. I get that it is supposed to help optimize CPU usage and improve system responsiveness but I am not sure how to set it up properly for everyday use.

What is the best way to configure the ProBalance feature? Should I leave it on default or tweak it depending on my applications? Also; how do the CPU affinities & priorities really work? I want to make sure I am not accidentally messing up my system is performance.

If anyone could share some beginner-friendly tips or explain how you use Process Lasso to get the best results without too much hassle, that would be awesome.

Thank you.
