    Good afternoon @Brink

    Regarding adding a context menu to run *.exe files at different priority levels, is there any advantage to running, and therefore adding analogous right-click entries to ps1, bat, cmd, com, jse, js, msi, msc, wsf, wsh, vbe, vbs files as well? I can figure out how to add the entries but what I really want to know is if they are necessary. For example, would bat files or javascript files benefit from running at different priority levels?
    Hello mate,

    It really depends on how much resources the file may use when executed and if you need to adjust its priority level or not.

    Understood. I could see how complex powershell and batch file scripts might need more resources but would javascript or VBS script files need priority? I am not a coder so I don't really know.

    Usually not unless they are running a command that uses more than usual resources.

    It seems like being able to change priority would be most often relevant for only exe files and adding the context menu entries for other files would just create clutter. Other than archive files, are there any other exe-type files I am missing from my list above?

    It looks like you got them all covered.
