That's not possible under the Processes tab since it can only be done in Details tab. What you can do is right click on the process and then click "Go to details" to redirect you to the Details tab. Clicking "Go to details" should point you to a more detailed information about the process and that's where you can set the priority level. :)

    It's because the UI has changed in newer versions, but the tabs are the same with the old UI and its contents. :)
