unable to startvm with high priority

[p1234]

I recently upgraded to 4.3.26 and now I'm unable to run my batch file that launched my VM with high priority because it seems that there are now 3 different processes that end up getting run. The parent process has the high priority but the actual VM does not which makes it slow. Here is the batch file, not much to it. Anyone found a workaround for this, or should I report it as a bug?

Batch File contents:
start "name" /high "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VirtualBox.exe" --comment name --startvm 1941c965-3dc5-4326-85ae-4400ea58b90d

Things that I've tried without any success:
- running the batch file as admin
- setting VirtualBox.exe to always run as Admin

VirtualBox on Windows has certain means for hardening. This prevents external tools to change the process properties. We are aware that some users want to change the VM process priority and we will implement this, though I cannot provide you an ETA.

ok. I'll add it to the bug list so that I can see when/which version contains the fix. Thanks
