Folder and sub-folder based process rules for CPU sets?

Hi there!

Is it possible to have all programs in a folder and subfolders set to a specific CPU set as a rule?

The only two rules I want to run are: 

(1) Everything launched from Steam and any of its subfolders go to CCD0

(2) Everything else goes to CCD1


The second rule is easy and I already have it set (just a rule with * for process name and frequency).

The first rule is proving impossible for me to get right, even though various AI tools and reddit posts seem to think its possible.

I figured it was time to ask the experts. Thanks!

A simple wildcard matching the Steam folder should work fine, e.g.:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\*
You could even just do:

*Steam*
What have you got now?

Thanks Jeremy! The first one totally did the trick.

The previous ones I had found were some crazy wildcard format that only seemed to get the steam process itself.

Thanks again!
