Title: Help using Process Lasso Pro to turn off hyuper threading for select processes
Post by: Globespy on September 07, 2018, 02:33:53 PM
As the title suggests I am trying to limit a few programs on my PC from using HT without turning off globally in BIOS.

Attaching screenshot of what I think is the correct method - I would select cores 0-3 to disable HT? Right?

Tested this, and even though the CPU Affiity "Always" shows cores 0-3 it seems the application simply ignores Process Lasso and uses HT anyway!
Appreciate any guidance on resolving this without having to go into BIOS

PS - any way to NOT have to keep answering these verification questions every time?

To disable HT you would want to select every other CPU core (so 0,2,4,...). This is also what the 'Single-threaded performance mode' does.

The process here may be setting its own CPU affinity. You should try checking 'Options / Forced mode'. Please let me know how this goes!

I will check the forum settings, apologies for the difficulties. EDIT: It was set to ask for the first 2 posts, now set to first post only.
