Syntax
ProcessPriority(ARGUMENT) |
where ARGUMENT is one of the following:
| High |
High CPU priority. It is not advised to use this for MyDefrag, because it will use nearly
all available CPU time. |
| AboveNormal |
CPU priority above the Normal and below the High priorities |
| Normal |
The standard CPU priority of all Windows programs. This is the default for MyDefrag. |
| BelowNormal |
CPU priority below the Normal and above the Low priorities. |
| Low |
Low CPU priority. With this setting MyDefrag will only run when the system is idle.
This is the default for the MyDefrag screensaver (Windows automatically runs all
screensavers in this priority class). |
| Background |
Background processing priority. This setting will lower the resource (I/O) scheduling
priority and the CPU priority to "Low". The result of this setting is that
other programs will get faster access to the disks.
This setting is not supported on Windows 2000/2003/XP. |
