Hi all:


DOes anybody know how to determine the base priority of a program, something like this WinID does It's an interesting piece of software, I ran it on my WinXP and it shows that task bar has base priority higher than normal programs, as well as task manager -- I didn't know that. Also is it possible to set this base priority?

Any help will be appreciated!


PS. Search in MSDN did not yeild any ways to do it....
 
Check GetPriorityClass and GetPriorityLevel in MSDN. I think they are somehow combined by that software to make base priority. I haven't heard about any APIs that may return it.
