Set ideal processor
Option for changing the ideal processor of a thread would be nice!
Re: Set ideal processor
Right click the thread and select Affinity to change the idea processor 
Re: Set ideal processor
I can't set ideal processor there...only regular affinity mask.

Re: Set ideal processor
Ahhh I see! You limit to ur ideal and then switch back and it sticks....cool ty.
Re: Set ideal processor
Is there a way to set affinity for multiple threads at once(not whole process)?
Re: Set ideal processor
The affinity dialog gets greyed out when I select more than one thread
Re: Set ideal processor
The multi-selection is currently only in the nightly builds:

Re: Set ideal processor
Awesome! Thank you so much for your help
(edit: I noticed some affinities for whole process don't work in nightly while they do in the regular processhacker edition. For example sgrmbroker.exe....you can set affinity for threads but setting whole process won't stick. LMK if and where you want bug reports like this...I'd gladly post them as I come accross them)

Re: Set ideal processor
That's to be expected on Windows 10 since sgrmbroker.exe is a protected WinTcb process that blocks changes such as priority (You can see the protection on the process properties general tab on the bottom left). You should instead use the IFEO priority option in these cases and reboot the machine.
Re: Set ideal processor
Thanks for the info! Yeah the IFEO feature in nightly version is very convinient...it has no option to set affinity though.
It's no problem, I have the regular version of process hacker installed as well and it can bypass those protections.
Ty again, you helped me out a lot!
