The T2 chip makes it impossible to see the internal drive, Apple generously did an exception only for Windows 10 (but only if you install it via Boot Camp). There’s another restriction of the T2 chip not related to the app: it’s currently not possible to install any 3rdParty operating system except Windows 10 on Apple computers equipped with T2 chip (earlier some enthusiasts installed Linux). Unfortunately, we believe it won’t be solved in the future, though there’s a GitHub issue. We confirmed the problem themselves on both iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018. It seems that the T2 chip blocks access to SMC under Windows, while SMC is essential to get sensors values and fans info.
Unfortunately, this is not an Apple thing: its computers become more and move about restrictions and limitations, which is not good for experienced users and developers. The introduction of the new T2 security chip makes it currently impossible for the app to work under Windows (iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018).Įxtra security is great (even we didn’t ask for it) but ONLY when it’s limitations are optional and an experienced user can turn them off. Additional possibility of running the app under Windows (installed via Boot Camp) has always been an extra cool thing. Enjoy!įor years our wonderful Macs Fan Control app has been helping thousands of people to monitor temperatures and take control over fans on Apple computers. Please advise the possible solution to this problem.Update 2020: Now you can control fans on Windows 10 with the latest version of Macs Fan Control.
I also uninstalled the iStat Menu to see if it makes a difference, but the fan still doesn't run no matter how hot the laptop gets. One more thing: when I adjust the fan speed slider from 4000 to 2000rpm the fan suddenly stops working and I can not hear any sound and the temperature starts to heat up. Is it a software bug or does my fan have some sort of hardware issue? I am concerned about why this is happening? Why does it not work automatically on the default setting even though it gets so hot to the point that it starts to lag. Now I am using the manual setting and running it on 4000rpm and the temperature gets to between 40c-50c.
I had iStat Menu installed and when I switched from default to manual setting and set the speed the fan would start spinning. I have a MacBook Pro (Retina) and I am noticing that the fan is not running at all even though the temperature gets to more than 60c and the system starts lagging.
