Default How to run VBA code at low priority?

Hi Excel Gurus,

I have a Excel VBA code which freezes my computer when it runs. The entire
code takes about 5 minutes to finish processing the data.

Is it possible to make it run at low priority so that my computer does not
freeze and I could still do some work?

You could try setting the priority of the Excel process to "low".
