Research direction

Start by reviewing the issue report and its three comments for any diagnostic details or suggested reproduction steps. The report describes Fan Control disappearing from the tray and AMD Adrenalin fan settings changing on Windows 11, but names no code files or tests; done would mean identifying whether Fan Control changes those settings and explaining the observed behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

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?
