Process Lasso v3.80 goes final

Posted on 09:33 by Unknown
A couple days ago I released v3.80 final, after one more round of testing and a couple little bug fixes. I've have this beta series under development for more than 3 months, mostly due to the extremely large number of changes. This week, I finally said - 'Its done'. Sure, there inevitably be some minor updates to polish this or that, but its a solid build with great new features. Most of the new features I've listed in previous postings, but here is a quick rehash and a few things not previously mentioned:

  1. New 'Active processes' tab with horizontal bar graphs reflecting CPU utilization. This new view has the same context menu items as the 'all processes' view and double clicking a process will take you to its entry in the 'All processes' list.
  2. New 'Hide graph' button to quickly and easily toggle the visibility of the graph
  3. Improved ProBalance reaction time substantially. That means it can 'get to' and out-of-control process faster than ever before. In some cases, this may mean the difference between a few second stall and no stall at all.
  4. Improved Gaming mode, which now enters the High Performance power scheme.
  5. Better window positioning on low resolution devices, and better window pane sizing
  6. For those few users who run Process Lasso in 'Highest Rights' mode under Vista/Win7, there is now an option to have UAC elevation prompt(s) shown to you at login, instead of having Windows Defender block Process Lasso's automatic startup.
  7. Safety mechanism added to revert any changes to the active power scheme in case the governor (or whole PC) suffered from an improper shutdown
  8. SO MUCH MORE...

I recommend everyone check this build out ;). Next on the agenda is a long overdue update to PECompact. It will be nice to be able to relax on Process Lasso for a while, after such intensive development. You must remember, the overhead with Process Lasso is increasing substantially. I now have to create many different editions of the product, ensure proper support of many different languages, and ensure quality control. Needless to say, its more manual labor than it used to be. I am getting a bit overwhelmed with it all, but will continue to strive for excellence.
