Set Windows app or game process priority (high, normal, low) on-the-fly via hot keys.
What Is Process Priority?
Process priority in Windows determines how the operating system allocates CPU resources to running applications. Every process is assigned a priority level that influences how often it gets scheduled for execution compared to others. Think of it as giving a task a louder (or quieter) “voice” in asking the CPU for attention. App-Throttle supports HIGH, NORMAL and LOW process priority settings for a given app or game.
HIGH: Suitable for tasks that must run promptly like games or video renderings.
NORMAL: Default for most apps - balanced resource sharing.
LOW: Minimum priority, ideal for background applications.
Usage:
Run App-Throttle.exe.
Set the priority of the active application or game via hotkeys:
HIGH:
CTRL+ALT+H
NORMAL:
CTRL+ALT+N
LOW:
CTRL+ALT+L
How to start App-Throttle automatically with Windows:
Click start. Type RUN and press ENTER. Type SHELL:STARTUP and press ENTER.
Drag & drop app-throttle.exe to the startup folder with 2nd mouse button and select "Create shortcut here."
App-Throttle will now start with Windows automatically.
