Hello.
when i manually set the slider to the middle, the process lasso show "empty" power profile.

Only the "Better battery" and "max performance" overlay works in process lasso.

Process Lasso / Re: reset ALL settings
Last post by Jeremy Collake - February 03, 2024, 12:39:41 PM
Those actions should have reset everything. What leads you to believe that something is persisting?

EDIT/ANSWER: A reboot is required to clear already applied process settings. The other actions beyond 'Reset Configuration' are not necessary.

Process Lasso / reset ALL settings
Last post by flowermoron - February 03, 2024, 10:44:59 AM
Hello

I'm having a hard time resetting Process Lasso. I tried deleting all files from program data, appdata, and program files, and I also tried "options => reset configurations" and reinstallation, but nothing worked.

How do I reset everything completely back to default?

Thanks

Process Lasso / [BUG] Profile Switcher broken ...
Last post by TheRealBix - January 31, 2024, 12:18:20 PM
Hi,
My custom process match rule breaks the Profile Switcher at the comma after closing the window :
/f:\\games(?!.*wallpaper_engine,.*palserver)/first part stays in the Process Match and .*palserver)/ then replace the Config Profile set before closing the window.

First screenshot is after the rule creation, second is after closing/reopening Profile Switcher.

Last post by Jeremy Collake - January 29, 2024, 05:45:45 AM
The core selection in the affinity context menu is indeed untenable, and already hidden on systems with 32 or more logical processors. There are plans to improve this, and I think you'll see that come to fruition in the near future!

Process Lasso / Affinity-setting context menu ...
Last post by Coldblackice - January 28, 2024, 11:31:09 PM
Regarding context-menu setting of affinity:

Given processes' "Affinity" context menu by default has all CPU cores pre-selected, and given a mouse click in context menus immediately closes the menu, if one desires quickly setting affinity this way, it requires opening the same menu again and again. Not very tenable, and easier to just jump into the expanded Affinity panel popup.

Two potentials are 1) Implementing an ability to keep this menu open even after a clicking inside it, akin to "holding CTRL/SHIFT" function, closing the menu by either Escaping or clicking outside it.

Or 2), Inverting the scope, so instead of all cores selected as the default/no-action, instead no-cores selected being the default/no-action, and only when the user clicks a core in this menu does affinity-setting occur.

My (uneducated) hunch is users might more directly "single-core" a process affinity (on average) or "No-hyperthreading"*, both of which needing only a single click. Or at least get to their end-goal affinity faster by enabling cores rather than an inverted bitmask.

The ideal would be keeping the Affinity sub-menu open after clicking in it (or switching to the full panel). That said, perhaps this wouldn't be easy to do, contextually, for just this one menu, meaning all other context menus would need to be escaped/clicked out of to make them go away.

Alas, probably something 99% of the userbase never comes across, and thus cares about  :) Just some thoughts.

*I've temporarily disabled hyperthreading to test the effect on multiplayer games
**Sidenote, I just discovered in posting this that the random pauses and "hiccups" of audio I've been getting lately, despite LatencyMon not showing any issues with DPCs, has been due to my manual pinning of audiodg.exe to a single core! My own fault, initially set to keep it on a physical core with hyperthreading enabled, which I usually run.

You're right that manually induced Performance Mode will persist across reboots and override the 'Start with' power plan. I created a ticket to consider not persisting it when 'Start with' is in use. We'll also consider adding a tray notification message when Performance Mode is re-engaged when the app starts.

Thanks for the feedback!
