WUFI

Since Windows 11, the WMIC command used in the original batch files https://www.wufi-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2005 has been deprecated. As a result, the old scripts no longer work correctly in all situations.

I have therefore created a new set of PowerShell-based scripts, which can be downloaded here:
https://wufi.de/download/WUFI2DMulticoreScripts.zip (Scripts version from July 29th, 2026)

These scripts are intended to simplify multicore calculations and provide a reliable replacement for the previous WMIC-based batch files on current Windows systems.

Please extract the ZIP archive completely before using it. The included .lnk files can then be started simply by double-clicking them.
Included Scripts:

WUFI2D_StartGUI.lnk

• Starts WUFI 2D with a user-defined number of CPU cores.

WUFI2D_StartGUI_fastlane.lnk

• Directly starts WUFI 2D using the core count from the last session, without prompting. Can be used to launch WUFI 2D instead of the original shortcut.

WUFI2D_CoreTest.lnk

• Tests and determines the optimal number of CPU cores (threads) for your system and project.

WUFI2D_BatchCalc.lnk

• Calculates prepared WUFI 2D project files in batch mode. A calculation list containing multiple files can be created and processed automatically.

If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, please feel free to share your feedback in this forum thread.

I will add further information on scripts and use the next days.

Update July 15th, 2026:
I have added a progress indicator for the calculations for BatchCalc and CoreTest
Update July 21th, 2026:
Added command line for StartGUI and it now asks, if it should get amount of cores from a project. Window closes directly after start.
Update July 22th, 2026:
Changed search algorithm for CoreTest, changed process start for all scripts.
Update July 29th, 2026:
Added abort handling for all scripts.

Have fun,
Christian
