IMPORTANT: One thing I forgot: 1. With the sim is running, right-click on flightsimulator.exe and select "Induce Performance Mode" from the dropdown menu (see this menu at 06:05 in the video). This will make sure your PC is running in performance mode whenever MSFS is running. 2. Then right-click on flightsimulator.exe again, go to CPU Affinity, and make sure your CPU settings are correct (core 0 disabled, all other P-cores enabled). Sorry for the oversight, this was a complicated video to make!

Dude. This is truly Amazing. My 13600K is like a brand new I7 or something. The game runs amazing now! I set my affinity to use Hyperthreading, some said to turn that off but it works better for me with it on, the performance before was meh to ok. Now it's actually hitting my adpative Vsync everywhere except heavy places like New York. It's truly amazing what process lasso does when set up right.
Thanks do much. I did the past two days 2 of your suggestions to improve and finally today after the LASSO help and you my system is running at 60 fps. Thats what I like and enjoy now more and more MSFS2020. Thanks again for your clear tutorials to improve.
Thank you again for another excellent video helping me to improve MSFS performance, I'm cpu limited as I'm running on a laptop (13900h RTX 4090 32GB 5200) and I followed your instructions and they seemed to have made a big improvement, my FPS went up from mid 40s to mid 60s whilst using fsHud & FSLTL at Pyreegue's EGAA (albeit with frame gen running!). I've followed all of our videos regarding MSFS performance and they have improved my simming enourmously - Thank You!
Thank you for creating this video and sharing your insights with us. I've been using Process Lasso for over a year now and it's been essential for running full resolution on my Quest 3 VR in MSFS. I hadn't explored the memory trimming feature before, so I really appreciate your explanation of how it works.
@@Level10Productions wow, i hear you, but that is a long list. I wish i had documented it all. Below are what i found to be must influential. 1- Running a custom Windows OS called Revision. It is a highly customized OS for low latency gaming. 2) Always installing drivers with NVCleanInstall, this allows you to install debloated drivers which yield higher performance than regular drivers installation, 3) following the guides of IslandSimPilot, 2020 fs'ers and VR Flight Sim Guy.
Just a word of warning: in VR, for the Aero and Q3, Process Lasso can cause extreme instability. This is a common complaint among *some* users of the aforementioned headsets. Some people swear by it. I can’t seem to use it with my 13900k and 4090 but I know others can. Your mileage may vary, of course.
This is not about Microsoft flight simulator, however I wanted to just say that I am using lasso because somebody told me that it could help with my loading times with dcs. All the sudden for no reason that I could tell it would take like 3 minutes for DCS to open after I click on the icon. And I have an absolutely up-to-date top of the line PC with the best of everything at this moment and 64 gigs of RAM and all of a sudden it just was not load. So I installed lasso and instantly my game was loading within 20 seconds and up and ready to go so just wanted to put that in that somebody who actually needed it for speeding up my load times and it works absolutely perfectly
Thank you for yet another informative video! I was going through the steps of setting this up when I noticed that during the initial phase of setup, flightsimulator.exe was running at a Normal priority class. Later, when you are demonstrating Smart Trim, the priority class is showing as High. (time in video to compare: 8:07 vs 18:19) Did you make a change that is not shown in the video to switch it to High? Thanks again!
I used lasso a while back but it did not make any difference with AMD cores. No p or e cores. I did some testing and for me it is better not to select the AMD cores. And I am using Autofps and a small memory manager to get rid of the purge list with great success. So I’ve revisited process lasso and setting the smartrim as you described plus AutoFps it really improves my performance. Thanks you.
Had a great group flight. Need to change some of my control surfaces with my Boeing yolk, peddles, and throttle. Once that's done I should be able to keep up. Thanks again for hosting! Also, thanks for the great tip! I'll let you know on the next group flight how it works.
You took me back a few years... I used Process Lasso when I was still in FSX (2018) and it did make a good deal of difference in performance. Of course now, I only use my MSFS PC for MSFS...so my numbers with MSFS running (and edge and GSX), my processor usage is 17%, the responsiveness 100% and the memory load at 30%. These numbers did not change when I introduced the settings you suggested. This may have to do with the fact that I have a i9-13900k processor, 64GB of RAM and a RTX 4080 GPU. Where I believe I will get the better performance is during long flights (>8-9 hours) where the load on the machine tends to increase. For those that don't have moderate to high performance PCs (mine is considered "moderate"), if you learn how to use Process Lasso and how to do the tweaks, you will get better performance, especially if you have a i5 or i7 processor. With those processors, freeing up every bit of CPU resource and RAM will keep the sim stable. Thanks for taking me back to go forward!
Love Process Lasso, been using for a long time as in the past I was an avid tarkov enjoyer and to optimise that on a r5 3600 was a pain. Now I use it on pretty much all games that are performance heavy. If you don't have the trial like me, you can't use CPU sets, so you have to individually select CPU affinity, but I haven't had any issues doing that on my system for navigraph, volanta, or fsltl injector. I now want to test it for the fenix app, as I had never previously thought about that, so I'll let you know my thoughts soon. Additionally, If you right click on the graph if you will give you a dark mode options, saving your eyes when you tweak things in the middle of the night.

Hello, on another youtube post the author advices not to select zero P-core as it is used by Microsoft windows so instead of starting from zero to 7 (for instance) it uses 1 to 7 P-cores. What can you comment on this? thanks
I used to run Lasso some time ago. I am revisiting it thanks in part to this video. Can you talk about how does this all work with VR devices like the Quest 3 and its applications?
I appreciate you showing this. I used to edit the registry years ago with FS2004/2002. This may save the headache. Have you noticed an improvement, at least fixing the stuttering issues? Do you think you will you continue to use this? I'd love to see some before/after video of this in action. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Sky, part of my problem is that I don't really have performance issues, so my before and afters are usually "good" and "good". :) But I've ready plenty of stories of this being transformative for people in terms of FPS and smoothness.
Important update 🔔 Since the release of sim update 15 processor Laso became obsolete because the sim now is utilizing all of the cores so only setting the processor on P cores will result in an occasional stutters especially if you 6 or lower p cores if you want to use it just don’t set any affinities
a registry node can be saved as reg textfile with the REG extension -- you can have 2 files with 2 different settings and then double-click - if they have a REG extension then windows knows what to do. So, this can be automated somehow.
@@Inupajuk1981 hi , I am running MSFS on the 3d cores 5,7,9,11,13 and 15. So in my case MSFS run best on 6 cores. I have SMT enabled on my PC but don't use it for MSFS. All other stuff like Fenix are on the non 3d cores. this gives me At KMIA/Fenix 12:00 clear sky at runway 27 120FPS when you take out the GPS of the limit by cranking done the render scale and make cpu limiting factor. This is for me the only way to test the FPS. I don't use gamebar or chipset to determine what is running on which core but Process lasso is doing a mighty fine job!
How do you get to select P-cores and E-cores? In Process Lasso my CPU lists 16 cores, but no buttons for P-cores and E-cores. Does that mean my CPU doesn't have this? CPU is an i7-10700K.
Hi, thank you so much for your clear explanations! In my Process Lasso at Select CPU Affinity I get the list with all my 20 available threads (0 - 19) but no tabs for E-cores or P-cores. Any suggestions here?
Hi there - not really related to THIS video, but I'm reaching out to all in our sim community for help and advice. The latest WU XVI Caribbean update says there's 3 new bush trips, but, although they show in the Caribbean update as being there, installed and up to date, they don't appear in the Bush Trip Menu page, and nor anywhere else! The MS FS2020/Asobo team say they're "Stumped" and have no idea as to why they don't show!! Very helpful - NOT! Do you, or anyone reading this have any idea what may be the issue? My community folder is empty btw, and all of the 'new' Bush Trip aircraft are installed and up to date, and all versions of each aircraft are installed. Does anyone else have the same problems?
Hi again, After using Process Lasso for a fortnight or so I can tell that it is oiling my computer quite significantly with probalance enabled (There is no need to exclude flightsim from Probalance since it is done automatically - ref. the documentation). The only problem is that I noticed that after 8 days the free version starts with a countdown of 5 sec increasing every days onwards each time you turn on your computer with limited options still available...so hurry up tuning it the way you need before the 8 first days ! Fly safe, Cheers
@@sharkfisherman1884 the idea behind disabling core 0 for flight sim is to prevent it from beeing disturbed. Windows 10/11 processes mostly use core 0. If processes of flight simulator uses core 0, they will share core 0 with Windows processes, resulting in slower and varying performances. Disabling e-cores is a different trick. The goal is to prevent running with slow cores (e-cores a power efficient but slow). If you have an amd or an intel before 12th gen, no core is slow, so leave all cores except 0 enabled. Hope this helps
Hi Just one thing, when opening the CPU Affinity Window I don´t have the P-Cores/E-Cores choices showing. They´re just not there. I´m using the FREE Version of it. Thank you for a great work.
As always impressed by your knowledge of things. Helps me immensely with my sim. One thing though. In Lasso my memory usage remains high (87 in the sim of 32GB). Way too high if you ask me. How can I manage this better? Nothing of importance is running during simming... strange don't you think? Oh yeah. Momentarely at KORD in the A320 FNX. Can it have something to do with my GPU CUDA settings? Perhaps....
Hi There ! Thx for this presentation of this piece of software. Now that you seems to have reach a plateau in your Holly Grail quest, you could add another target besides "smooth and crispy" namely "low powered". In other words you could now try to keep your sim smooth ad crispy while reducing its electrical power consumption (the fuel for our sim ! ). For instance you could undervolt your GPU and CPU, use an FPS limiter like Rivatuner that comes along with MSI Afterburner. I noticed that the power consumption is much lower when FPS limit is set at 30 than at 60. 30 is more than enough in my opinion during en route phase at high altitude. This FPS settings are very easily done using Rivatuner. Fly safe, Cheers,
I am new to this, but when running MSFS 2020, before starting it, there are several programs I need to have running and it is a pain to do. Is there a way to automate these, maybe just a single click on an icon. Maybe that being Lasso Process, and it will all ne done for you, just as you want it set up?
@@davidicusb - I see, I got a rough idea of what you mean, but have not done a batch file before, got any good pointers or where to go, I would appreciate it.
I did exactly what you described but unfortunately it didn't yield good results for me.. I actually lost FPS and it still has the occasional micro stutter.. oh well. Good video though!
Stagger and Invert will only help by separating programs out to use separate group of cores. It may or may not help you. Try running flightsim on its own group and everything else on the other cores.
Wow ..... haven't used this app in at least 8 years !!! I have an i9-10900K and I do not see E-Cores or P-Cores. Not the buttons or the letter behind the CPU names.
The 10900K was before E Cores were added. It has 10 P Cores, each with hypertheading, so the cores will be numbered 0 thru 9 (or 0 thru 19 including the hyperthreads in HWINFO64).
Wow, made a marked difference. Thank you so much for putting it out. Since you are a true wizard on these subjects, I was hoping you could help me in elimination these annoying popup message. I made a short video of flying into one the remote Alaska airstrips I made as it seems to create the problem most often. Is it a GSX issue not recognizing ground services, and if so is there a way to rid myself of the messages without having to remove GSX? Thanks and if it's something that will help someone else please share it and explain what to do. Thanks George! ruclips.net/video/O3U0oDKW4bQ/видео.html
The easiest way to set FS2020 at 'Hi Priority' is to make txt file with extension *.reg and copy/paste following lines to it, double click and accept changes to registry and your done.: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\FlightSimulator.exe] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\FlightSimulator.exe\PerfOptions] "CpuPriorityClass"=dword:00000003 Now FS is always running in Hi priority mode. Back to normal priority, change 3 into 2.
Same here, there were sudden CTDs until I deleted PL. I was on a 9700K, now It’s a 7800x3D under a hood and there is no need for this, as the CPU hasn’t P/E cores and non 3D chiplet.
When I built my MSFS-dedicated computer in 2020, I erred by installing 64GB of fast RAM. The consensus in the forums seems to be that it was overkill and a waste of money. However, at this point I'd think that it would at least make the Trim functionality in Process Lasso totally unnecessary. Is that deduction correct or incorrect?
IMPORTANT: One thing I forgot:
1. With the sim is running, right-click on flightsimulator.exe and select "Induce Performance Mode" from the dropdown menu (see this menu at 06:05 in the video). This will make sure your PC is running in performance mode whenever MSFS is running.
2. Then right-click on flightsimulator.exe again, go to CPU Affinity, and make sure your CPU settings are correct (core 0 disabled, all other P-cores enabled).

Just one thing, when opening the CPU Affinity Window I don´t have the P-Cores/E-Cores choices showing. They´re just not there. I´m using the FREE Version of it. Thank you for a great work.
Hey Paulo, what CPU do you have?
@@IslandSimPilot I have the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core Processor
I have an Intel i7 and don’t have those choices either. I appreciate the clarity and information quality you provide in your tutorials. Thank you!
As always impressed by your knowledge of things. Helps me immensely with my sim. One thing though. In Lasso my memory usage remains high (87 in the sim of 32GB). Way too high if you ask me. How can I manage this better? Nothing of importance is running during simming... strange don't you think? Oh yeah. Momentarely at KORD in the A320 FNX. Can it have something to do with my GPU CUDA settings? Perhaps....
Any good with VR ??
I am not sure, actually, I'm not a VR user. I would love for someone to try it out and let me know thought!
I will be the gunnie pig and give it a go when I get home and keep you posted.
Thank you very much. And for 7950X3D i ever give Games the 8 C0 Cores?
Hey, for AMD, they don't have e-cores, so I would just make sure whichever is the very first core is disabled for MSFS.
Hi There ! Thx for this presentation of this piece of software. Now that you seems to have reach a plateau in your Holly Grail quest, you could add another target besides "smooth and crispy" namely "low powered". In other words you could now try to keep your sim smooth ad crispy while reducing its electrical power consumption (the fuel for our sim ! ).
For instance you could undervolt your GPU and CPU, use an FPS limiter like Rivatuner that comes along with MSI Afterburner. I noticed that the power consumption is much lower when FPS limit is set at 30 than at 60.
30 is more than enough in my opinion during en route phase at high altitude. This FPS settings are very easily done using Rivatuner.
Fly safe, Cheers,
I am new to this, but when running MSFS 2020, before starting it, there are several programs I need to have running and it is a pain to do. Is there a way to automate these, maybe just a single click on an icon. Maybe that being Lasso Process, and it will all ne done for you, just as you want it set up?
Yes. You can use a batch file to start everything at once.
@@davidicusb - I see, I got a rough idea of what you mean, but have not done a batch file before, got any good pointers or where to go, I would appreciate it.
Has anyone used this with the Fenix A320 yet? I noticed it tries to run using P-cores too. Wondering what has worked for others?
works werrry nice
I wonder why the devs wouldn't have included Services to be prioritized?
Hi
Great video as usual.
What if no E-Cores? I have 11 CPU...🤨 I´m running on AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 6-Core Processor 4.00 GHz
Tks
Hey, for AMD they don't have e-cores, in which case I would just make sure you have core 1 or 0 (whichever the very first one is) disabled for MSFS.
Will do. Tks
Hopefully with the new msfs2024 we don’t need to use this or any kind of software to get better performance on msfs due to multithreaded support!😊
Agree Duque!!!
I did exactly what you described but unfortunately it didn't yield good results for me.. I actually lost FPS and it still has the occasional micro stutter.. oh well. Good video though!
What happen if I don't have p and e cores and only have stagger and invert
Stagger and Invert will only help by separating programs out to use separate group of cores. It may or may not help you. Try running flightsim on its own group and everything else on the other cores.
@Level10Productions ohh meaning I run either on stagger or invert and other apps on the vice versa?
@bruhitsmoh I suppose its better than no control. If you designate certain cores to favor flight sim but not affinity, that should help. Does it?
@@Level10Productions cool
Most is rocket science to mee. You can measure the gains with that "app"?
It does give you the CPU and RAM usage, along with "responsiveness", aka any input lag in your computer.
Can this bring down VRAM?
I'm looking into exactly that, will report back. It's a very powerful piece of software.
Wow ..... haven't used this app in at least 8 years !!! I have an i9-10900K and I do not see E-Cores or P-Cores. Not the buttons or the letter behind the CPU names.
I've heard about it for ages, I just haven't gotten around to it until now.
The 10900K was before E Cores were added. It has 10 P Cores, each with hypertheading, so the cores will be numbered 0 thru 9 (or 0 thru 19 including the hyperthreads in HWINFO64).
@@ColinDyckes Appreciate the knowledge, Colin, thank you!
@@ColinDyckes @IslandSimPilot That you so much for the input ;-)
Haha just before stream perfect
Wow, made a marked difference. Thank you so much for putting it out. Since you are a true wizard on these subjects, I was hoping you could help me in elimination these annoying popup message. I made a short video of flying into one the remote Alaska airstrips I made as it seems to create the problem most often. Is it a GSX issue not recognizing ground services, and if so is there a way to rid myself of the messages without having to remove GSX? Thanks and if it's something that will help someone else please share it and explain what to do. Thanks George!

The easiest way to set FS2020 at 'Hi Priority' is to make txt file with extension *.reg and copy/paste following lines to it, double click and accept changes to registry and your done.:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\FlightSimulator.exe]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\FlightSimulator.exe\PerfOptions]
"CpuPriorityClass"=dword:00000003
Now FS is always running in Hi priority mode. Back to normal priority, change 3 into 2.
Process Lasso would break my sim prompting a full reinstall.
It did or you think it would?
@@IslandSimPilot it did, more than once
Same here, there were sudden CTDs until I deleted PL. I was on a 9700K, now It’s a 7800x3D under a hood and there is no need for this, as the CPU hasn’t P/E cores and non 3D chiplet.
When I built my MSFS-dedicated computer in 2020, I erred by installing 64GB of fast RAM. The consensus in the forums seems to be that it was overkill and a waste of money. However, at this point I'd think that it would at least make the Trim functionality in Process Lasso totally unnecessary. Is that deduction correct or incorrect?
@@Buddy308I too have 64GB. All it means for me is never running out of ram. That kind of overkill doesn't hurt for sure.
