Process.PrivilegedProcessorTime Property

Definition

Gets the privileged processor time for this process.

C#
[System.Runtime.Versioning.SupportedOSPlatform("maccatalyst")]
[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("ios")]
[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("tvos")]
public TimeSpan PrivilegedProcessorTime { get; }
C#
public TimeSpan PrivilegedProcessorTime { get; }

Property Value

A TimeSpan that indicates the amount of time that the process has spent running code inside the operating system core.

Attributes

Exceptions

You are attempting to access the PrivilegedProcessorTime property for a process that is running on a remote computer. This property is available only for processes that are running on the local computer.

Examples

The following example starts an instance of Notepad. The example then retrieves and displays various properties of the associated process. The example detects when the process exits, and displays the process's exit code.

C#
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;

namespace ProcessSample
{
    class ProcessMonitorSample
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            // Define variables to track the peak
            // memory usage of the process.
            long peakPagedMem   = 0,
                 peakWorkingSet = 0,
                 peakVirtualMem = 0;

            // Start the process.
            using (Process myProcess = Process.Start("NotePad.exe"))
            {
                // Display the process statistics until
                // the user closes the program.
