PowerShell code sharing to change the precedence of script execution _powershell

All PS versions are supported.

You may need to perform PowerShell in the background, such as copying files, but you do not want it to affect your CPU to perform other tasks.

One way to do this is to lower the priority of PowerShell execution, and the following function will introduce this technique:

Copy Code code as follows:

function set-priority
{
[Cmdletbinding ()]
Param
(
[Parameter (mandatory= $true)]
[System.Diagnostics.ProcessPriorityClass]
$Priority
)

$process = Get-process-id $pid
$process. PriorityClass = $Priority
}

Lower priority is performed below:

Copy Code code as follows:

Set-priority-priority BelowNormal

You can change the execution priority to the normal level at any time, and even increase the priority of the script-increasing the extra overhead may affect the performance of your UI.
