[QUOTE="m18xr2, post: 547596, member: 28768"] hey Brink sory bringing up back an old thread. the shortcut works great for launching application rather than launch application -> task manager -> manually change affinity. however, what if say I wish to change affinity while a software/program already launched is there anyway to use a shortcut to still adjust the affinity for that currently running program without having to use task manager and manually change it? basically im looking to toggle different affinities with a running software without having to end process and relaunch it. this might seem silly but i have many uses for it, to maximize my hardware performance due to software being unoptimized to take full advantage of my cpu. examples below: using Broadwell-E CPU which has turbo max 3.0, it allow me to adjust frequency say 1 core at 5ghz while all core load at only 4ghz, when unoptimized software running on 1 core capable of using the highest frequency I set, works well with software that ONLY uses 1 core/thread. however in case I have a software which is semi-optimized, sometimes uses all cores, sometimes only uses 1 or 2 cores/threads, I want to be able to toggle affinities while software running under different scenarios to take advantage highest frequency possible.
