Netbalancer is awesome. Sucks that it's limited for the free version, but I still love it.
Sad to see that the bandwidth limiting functionality is gone in the new free version :(
I installed NetBalancer, configured it for testing, and checked its performance, but it didn't help at all--it's like it wasn't even installed. I had used cFosSpeed for years, and I know what to expect. Total waste of my time. And it left behind folders, driver files, and registry detritus after being "uninstalled".

The author of the program has paywalled the "rules". Previously, one could have up to 3 rules set that allowed shaping of traffic. Now it's just a heavyweight traffic monitor.
Now........ I'm sad to see that the bandwidth limiting functionality is gone in the new free version :(
At first i saw a lot of times some ppl using different apps to connect internet. Like Chrome to use conhost.exe BUT today i saw firefox using chrome.exe for update.. It is silly.
...by changing latency (in 'performance' tab of settings) to a higher value than default, eg: 15. I saved 0.5% to 1% on a 2015 ultraportable laptop with a broadwell core i5 2.3Ghz.
Thanks, I've just made the change
You're welcome! It'll save some battery too... ;-)
I tried everything available for Windows at alternativeTo, and NetBalancer is by far the best, much better than NetLimiter. When the trial ends, the software automatically turns into the free version. The free version is limited to 3 traffic shaping rules, but that's sufficient for most people. I never have more than 3 bandwidth hogs running at the same time.
What I like most is that "it just works". It is updated frequently, so bugs get fixed fast.
