Macs Fan Control wasn’t able to work under Windows on Apple computers equipped with the T2 security chip since it’s introduction in 2018. We honestly thought it wasn’t actually possible but now it is! We’re happy to announce that the program now flawlessly works in Windows 10 on modern Apple computers that have the T2 chip:

Our extremely popular Macs Fan Control app now gets even better: Pro version with presets for advanced users, major UI improvements and more stability.

Classic Mac Pro 5,1 (also 4,1 upgraded to 5,1) features only Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 2.1. Here’re main reasons why you want to upgrade Wi-Fi to 802.11ac and Bluetooth to 4.0:

• You get Continuity, Handoff and new AirDrop working natively
• Wi-Fi 802.11ac is insanely fast, Bluetooth 4.0 is more reliable, secure and way quicker
• macOS 10.15 Catalina no longer supports old BCM94322MC Wi-Fi card so Wi-Fi will not work there

Problem: the latest Windows 10 update 1903 runs into BSOD (Blue screen of death) with error message WDF_VIOLATION on some mac models (MacBook Pro 2010/2011, MacBook Air 2011, Mac Mini 2012, iMac 2010/2011 and some others). This fatal failure occurs when Windows is already loaded and system tries to start Apple Boot Camp Utility (BootCamp.exe). This tool is responsible for controlling screen brightness, volume, functional keys, backlit, etc with Apple keyboard. On some machines crash happens only if you try to start our Macs Fan Control app.

Problem: Boot Camp Control panel on Windows 10 doesn’t display macOS drive/partition which you could select to boot into.

Classic Mac Pro 5,1 (or simply cMP, also 4,1 upgraded to 5,1) is now considered by Apple as vintage. It’s pretty disappointing considering how capable and upgradable these machines still are. Installing Windows is no longer officially supported, but it’s completely possible though not quite easy.

Another challenge is that macOS Mojave 10.14 now implies using Metal-capable GPU while most of them are not able to display Apple boot menu (which you normally see holding the Option key) required to boot into Windows. Basicaly your screen remains black until macOS is loaded. Well, some EFI bootable cards that support boot menu exist but they are released almost 10 years ago and are really outdated. What is more, none of them supports displaying of boot menu with 4k 60hz monitor connected.

This guide is for those who want macOS Mojave + Windows 10 + modern GPU (in our case Sapphire Radeon Pulse RX 580 8GB).

Обновление 2020: Последняя версия Macs Fan Control теперь может управлять вентиляторами работая в Windows 10 на компьютерах Apple, оборудованных чипом T2. Ура!

Многие годы наша прекрасная программа Macs Fan Control помогала тысячам пользователей для мониторинга за температурой и контролем вентиляторов на компьютерах Apple. Возможность программы работать также и в Windows (установленной при помощи утилиты Boot Camp) всегда была отличным дополнением. Однако, с введением новых чипов безопасности T2 теперь под управлением Windows программа больше не работает (на данный момент, в iMac Pro и MacBook Pro 2018).

Good news for happy owners of Apple iMac Pro! Thе current version of Macs Fan Control (1.4.10) supports the new iMac Pro and correctly controls its enormous dual-fan cooler (both fans are synchronized). The app displays all available temperature sensors along with new twin SSDs.
