Is FanControl need or control through AMD Softwware adrenalin? #4140
Description
I have an AMD 9060 XT and it came to my attention that Fancontrol just disappears from the tray every few minutes (without errorlogs, at least the menu item is greyed out) and the fan just starts to work by a rather different profile than it should be. (Win11)
When out of curiosity I chaked AMD arenalin I saw that Tuning was on Custom profile and fan control also set. I don't recalled I set them up but nevertheless disabled fan control and set porfile to Default. Now started fanctrol and I saw that something (Fancontrol?) just modified its setting back to where they was. Is that normal? Is this from fancontrol?

Both FanControl and Adrenaline points to the same thing ( the amd driver ). So both UI control the same thing, hence why Adrenaline reacts to FanControl changes.

Great, so that1s fine. :)
Is there a method to check what could cause the disappearance of fancontrol from tray? The service is also stopped.
I started the GUI, it was sitting in the tray then after a few minutes it popped up on the desktop and after that it closed itself and gone.

Event viewer crash event.
However, and driver right now is bugged and doesn't work in service environment.
