What is Process Lasso?

Process Lasso manages how Windows processes use CPU resources. It combines a live process list and activity graphs with rules for priorities, CPU affinities and CPU Sets. ProBalance automates priority adjustments when background activity puts pressure on responsiveness, while persistent rules let you reuse process settings instead of changing them each time an application starts.

The free edition includes ProBalance, Performance Mode and priority, affinity and CPU Sets rules. Advanced tools such as CPU Limiter and Watchdog are trial-only without Pro, and automatic updates require Pro. The free edition displays a startup reminder; commercial use requires a license within 30 days of deployment.

This entry links to the publisher’s stable x86-64 EXE installer for Windows 10, Windows 11 and Windows Server. Separate x86-32 and ARM64 builds are available from Bitsum. Screenshots show the publisher’s v18 Pro main window and an older startup-options dialog from the Softonic gallery; they are interface illustrations, not a test of the linked installer.
