    Difference between CPU priority in task manager procceses?


    Hello all i would like to know whats the diference and what does it mean when i change the priority of procceses in task manager eg from normal to highr or from low to realtime.Thanks for any help

    A suitable answer for me would be to post each one and add descreption and then if you want add comments eg:

    low=
    below normal=
    normal=
    above normal=
    high=
    realtime=

    It is where your telling the system how important the process is. If you set it to low, the system won't use very many resources for that process, but if you set it to realtime, the system will use more resources to run that process. It's best to leave them alone unless a process that needs more resources doesn't have enough.
