Hwinfo64 unable to detect fans for HP ZBook Fury 17 G8 on Windows 11

[Ce3apyc]

HWInfo is unable to detect any fans in my system. The stock utility HP PC Hardware Diagnostics Windows does show one fan speed. But there are two fans installed in the system and they are called in the manual as CPU and GPU fans. Are there any services that should run on the system so HWInfo could detect fans? May be WMI or something like that?

IMPORTANT Thread 'Fan Control and Fan Speed Monitoring on Notebooks'

Jan 23, 2016

Fan Control is not an official HWiNFO feature and there are currently only very few specific machines supported:
- Alienware - all current models should be supported, but there are limitations based on model and fan control mode (EC support disabled/enabled)
- DELL - many (older) models supported, but fan control limited to 3 levels only. Some DELL machines might have problems using fan control
- Only very few specific HP models (8530w, 8740w) featuring SMSC EMC2103/EMC2113 controllers, some older ENVY 15/17)

There are currently no plans to extend fan control support to other...

It worked on my previous notebook HP Elitebook 8760w.

That was an exception listed above.
