Getting a process's cpu usage

[Spacetech]

I have this function and the cpu usage always comes out to 0 even when the process is at like 10+

Here is the code (UpdateCPUToolTip() just updates the tray icons tooltip):

Most of it is from here

expandcollapse popup

Func UpdateCPU()    
    Local $objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & @ComputerName & "\root\CIMV2")
    
    $CPU = "ERROR"
    
    If(@error) Then
        UpdateCPUToolTip()
        Return
    EndIf
    
    $colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_PerfRawData_PerfProc_Process WHERE IDProcess = '" & $PID & "'")
    
    For $objItem In $colItems
        $iT1 = $objItem.TimeStamp_Sys100NS
        $iP1 = $objItem.PercentProcessorTime
        
        If($objItem = "") Then
            UpdateCPUToolTip()
            Return
        EndIf
        
        Sleep(300)
    Next
    
    $colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_PerfRawData_PerfProc_Process WHERE IDProcess = '" & $PID & "'")
    For $objItem In $colItems
        $iP2 = $objItem.PercentProcessorTime
        $iT2 = $objItem.TimeStamp_Sys100NS
    Next
    
    If($objItem = "") Then
        UpdateCPUToolTip()
        Return
    EndIf
    
    $iPP = ($iP2 - $iP1)
    $iTT = ($iT2 - $iT1)
    
    If($iTT = 0) Then
        $CPU = 100
    Else
        $CPU = round(($iPP/$iTT) * 100, 0)
    EndIf
    
    UpdateCPUToolTip()
EndFunc

Is there anything wrong with this code?

I would take some tips from this ProcessListProperties function:

I tried that before but the PercentProcessorTime usually returns a really big number.

So does anyone know this?

It seems to only return 0 and 100

I'm using

$colItems = ""
    $objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & @ComputerName & "\root\CIMV2")
    $colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process WHERE IDProcess = '" & $PID & "'", "WQL", 0x30)
    
    If(IsObj($colItems)) Then
        For $objItem In $colItems
           $CPU = $objItem.PercentProcessorTime
           MsgBox(64, "$CPU", $CPU)
        Next
    EndIf

Why not just run the example as it is written, I can already tell just from looking at this snippet you are missing at least one value.
