Process.BasePriority Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets the base priority of the associated process.
public:
property int BasePriority { int get(); };public int BasePriority { get; }member this.BasePriority : intPublic ReadOnly Property BasePriority As IntegerProperty Value
The base priority, which is computed from the PriorityClass of the associated process.
Exceptions
The process has exited.
-or-
The process has not started, so there is no process ID.
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.

Remarks
The value returned by this property represents the most recently refreshed base priority of the process. To get the most up to date base priority, you need to call Refresh() method first.
The BasePriority of the process is the starting priority for threads created within the associated process. You can view information about the base priority through the System Monitor's Priority Base counter.
Based on the time elapsed or other boosts, the operating system can change the base priority when a process should be placed ahead of others.
The BasePriority property lets you view the starting priority assigned to a process. However, because it is read-only, you cannot use the BasePriority to set the priority of the process. To change the priority, use the PriorityClass property. The BasePriority is viewable using the System Monitor, while the PriorityClass is not. Both the BasePriority and the PriorityClass can be viewed programmatically. The following table shows the relationship between BasePriority values and PriorityClass values.
| BasePriority | PriorityClass |
|---|---|
| 4 | Idle |
| 8 | Normal |
| 13 | High |
| 24 | RealTime |
