Error when starting man window while process is running: "If the last start failed Exit now to edit or delete file: throttlestop.ini "

[SecCon]

Hi, I am obviously new to this application.

Trying to squeeze a bit more out of my Lenovo P52s with Intel Core i7 8550U Kaby Lake-R

I got it running and modded the CPU Core and the CPU Cache -60 millivolts and the result is great. 3.3Ghz and above, seems to be stable, very noticeable effect.
The process is running and I can open the main window and check values, or rather, could.

I get this error today that I have not seen before

I have made a copy of the ini file, since I assume there most saved values are located.
When adding TS to Scheduler I was not able to do it with my local account - despite being of course admin - so I resorted to do this, with some AI help:

$A = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "C:\ThrottleStop\ThrottleStop.exe"
$T = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtLogOn
Register-ScheduledTask -TaskName "ThrottleStop" -Action $A -Trigger $T -RunLevel Highest -User "SYSTEM"

This error message is new to me and wonder what could trigger it... again, I will be happy to provide more information once I know more on the possible cause and consequence of that error.


Ehm, never mind. The throttlebody.sys file changed location - annoying, it seems to keep jumping around - and my HIPS caught it and blocked it.

I now have three locations for sys excluded from HIPS
C:\Users\[USER]\AppData\Local\Temp\ThrottleStop.sys
C:\Windows\Temp\ThrottleStop.sys
C:\Throttelstop\ThrottleStop.sys



Got it running after exclusion and this is how my FIVR looks:

You can disable the ThrottleStop Safe Start feature in the Options window if it ever causes any problems.

The Task Scheduler Guide has always worked for me. I have not tested this method in Windows 11 24H2.

Effective clock speed

Hi, I have a problem with my CPU (8700K), which is that my effective core clock speeds decrease after a while. I have an all core OC set to 4.7GHz and initially when starting the PC, the effective core clocks are 4.7GHz as well when CPU is under load. These are later (like 10 mins later after...
