Ok I'm not sure if it worked, but when I change the priority in my app
it stays the same for that app even after I relaunch my app so that is

A priority of 0 is the default unless a process was launched by a process
that had a different priority, and then it would have that priority as well.
I'm afraid I don't follow what you're doing and what values you're seeing,
based on your use of that and my app. You can use the Unix command ps
The function you want is getpriority, but there are limits to what you can do
on changing a process's priority; if I recall, you can lower it (going from 0
to 1 or 20), but you can't raise it (going from 0 to -20) without admin/sudo

disabled by default).
is getpriority like this
int pri = getpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, pid);
and does
