Customizing the Paint Priority

Updating each section of the Control Center can consume valuable CPU time, so a background thread has been set up for all painting tasks in the Control Center. Paint priority assigns a priority to this thread, depending on how many programs you run on your Windows desktop, and how the Control Center may interact with those programs. The default priority is Medium. Use the drop-down listbox to  increase priority High or to decrease priority to Low.

Icon Options

Control Centers can be displayed as a running process on the Windows Taskbar, as part of the System Tray (next to the clock), or the dipslay of the Control Center icon can be suppressed altogether. The default setting is to display the Control Center like any other application in the Taskbar.

Reset Defaults

The Reset Defaults button changes the section order and color/font scheme to the default that was installed.
