Hey anyone know if you can disable cores for a specific program? Maya has a bug that you can't playblast at 1080p if you have over 16 cores enabled. I want to turn off 2 just for Maya, but not the whole PC, is that possible? Thank you!

You can restrict the number of cores via CPU affinity in Task Manager. Alternatively, you may utilize Process Explorer from the SysInternals suite on Microsoft’s site: Process Explorer - Windows Sysinternals | Microsoft Docs

Yes, one is tailored for a single program while the other applies to the entire PC. Thanks for the quick response!

one process / application (and probably every time you run it you have to set the number of cpu cores). I'm sure there's probably some open source / freeware program out there that can create a sort of shortcut so that every time you use the shortcut, that program starts and sets the cpu core count to a process and launches that process ... but I never had a need for such tool so I couldn't recommend you something.
