You use process configurations to define the system environment for specific processes. In detail, you specify the number of available processor cores and the process priority. You also select whether you only want to use the configuration in a remote session. You can use process configurations, for example, to relieve your remote desktop session hosts by limiting resource-hungry applications. This chapter describes how to create and editprocess configurations.
