Current link to 3.0 beta version (GUI) — https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsIwJHFk4EFdqNc2I45BxBqHhwaKIA?e=YjUSPn Please note that this software is not currently under active development and it is released in an "as is" state. Also note that it does not work with Dell systems released in 2022 and later. Requirements: • 64-bit Windows • The program is intended for use with Precision 7000-series systems, but it will likely work with all manner of Dell laptops, and maybe even smaller desktops (with Intel Sandy Bridge / 2nd-gen CPU or better) • BUT systems with 11th-gen CPUs and later (systems released in 2021 or later) are currently not supported. (The program may run, but you will not be able to control the fans.) • Current Visual C++ redistributable (https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe) • .NET Framework 4.8 runtime (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/thank-you/net48-web-installer) • .NET 6.0 runtime (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0/runtime, desktop x64) • In the registry, visit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CI\Policy, make a DWORD value called "UpgradedSystem" (no quotes) and set it to 0. Then, reboot. This allows drivers without a Microsoft EV signature to be loaded. (At some point I will have a version that will offer to set this value automatically at first launch.) To run the program, extract the zip file, and then open "DellFanManagement.exe" with elevated permissions ("as administrator").
