+## WARNING
+
+WingRing0x64, the driver used via [LHM](https://github.com/LibreHardwareMonitor/LibreHardwareMonitor) started to be flagged by Windows Defender as of March 11th 2025. This will prevent the program from loading all motherboard sensors and will result in an error upon loading. 
+Corresponding [issue](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/issues/3016).
+
+## New
+* The software is now open for translations. Contributions are welcomed here [FanControl.i18n](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.i18n)
+* AMD GPU support through [ADLXWrapper](https://github.com/Rem0o/ADLXWrapper).
+* Fan calibration and RPM mode for fan curves. See [discussion](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/discussions/2333).
+* Installer now available in addition to the portable version of the application. Both .NET 4.8 and 8.0 versions of the application are available as such [here](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/releases).

 * I am not the main developer for the driver/backend portion of this software. Fan Control is basically a UI on top of existing hardware libraries. Any issue regarding hardware compatibility entirely depends on the following projects. If you can't contribute meaningfully with a branch/PR, don't pollute their issue page with "XXXXX doesn't work". The hardware is needed for testing. If a dev has interest in that project, is browsing it, has your specific hardware AND the knowledge to make it work, that dev won't be looking for your issue, he'll just raise a PR.

 ## FAQ

 <br>__A__: You want to avoid any "smart" control from your BIOS. Setting a fixed default speed, like 50%, works great for most people. Also keep an eye if your BIOS has PWM or DC mode on. One could work better for you depending on your setup.
 * __Q__: My Nvidia cards has X fans, but only two cards show up, why?
 <br>__A__: Your card only has 2 channels, more than 1 fan are plugged to the same channel.
