This version has a neat new feature that not only can show you when the power plan changes, but what process initiated the change! In other words, it is not limited to ParkControl’s activities. We found some users with ‘hidden’ OEM power management software on their PC, so this will help ferret things like that out […]

This is an update as we work to refine product documentation in all languages. Process Lasso’s Forced Mode is now documented here. Forced Mode When enabled, Process Lasso’s Forced Mode causes Lasso settings such as process priority classes and CPU affinities to be continually reapplied, instead of only performed once on a given instance of a […]

CPUBalance v1.0 has been released. CPUBalance represents a subset of Process Lasso, specifically it’s famously effective and demonstrable ProBalance function, users who want ONLY that feature may want to install this even smaller rendition of the algorithm. However, CPUBalance also shares a Governor (silent core engine) with Process Lasso, so Process Lasso v8 users may wish […]

For those of you who have used our .REG files to show core parking settings, we are switching to recommending use of powercfg.exe. Turns out it has a nice command line option that is much more reliable. The registry settings work to show, but once shown, you can’t hide them again without these commands. Thus, there […]

Starting in CPUBalance v0.0.9.39 (BETA) and Process Lasso v9.0.0.101 (ALPHA), we have a new ‘Frequency of ProBalance Action’ metric to indicate how often a process is restrained. It is basically this: total_runtime / count_of_restraints This new metric lets you know how frequently a process is acted on WHEN it is running. Some processes run all […]

Absolutely you do! More than ever! We never sold that old ‘XP style’ optimization crud here at Bitsum, so we remain relevant, increasingly so. Process Lasso is as relevant, if not more, on newer processors than older. If you were to uninstall, most everyone then realizes the difference it was making! … and at the very […]

Long ago, I included an early version of ParkControl in Process Lasso – buried deep in it’s menus and rarely used. Ever since then, I’ve been trying to remove it, but get met with resistance when I do. Why would I remove it? Well, because it is now a distinct application, ParkControl. And it is 99% free. […]

We’ve added a page about one of our classic Bitsum freeware utilities, TweakScheduler. It has long been included with Process Lasso. You can reach it via ‘Options / External Tools‘. This is just one of many of our freeware utilities that have yet to be fully integrated into this new web site. TweakScheduler

RegMerge is a simple freeware project I developed many years ago. I saw that importing .REG files was a ‘blind’ process and wanted to improve upon it, and did so. Lately, RegMerge got some exposure after a few site edits, so suddenly it was ‘in use’. Now, it continues to remain in ALPHA status because there […]

The ‘Rules’ column in the process list provides a quick view of rules set for each process.
