NEW: Fan Control can now be started on boot as a service, without any user session.
-
NEW: Calibration avoid points: set avoid points if you want your fans to never run in at a specific % that may rattle or emit an annoying noise.
-
FanControl, its installer and the updater now have a signed executable, which should help with AVs false flagging.
-
V238 and above now ships with a PawnIO build of LHM. This fixes the anti-virus problems encountered with WinRing0, as it is no longer shipped with FanControl. Note that as of 09/04/2025, WinRing0 (FanControl.sys) used in V237 and below is flagged as Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A by Windows Defender, causing sensors to not be detected — updating to V238 or later is the recommended fix.
-
The FaceIT issue was fixed with the 2.1.0 PawnIO version.
