-## WARNING
+## Announcement
+
+[V238](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/releases/tag/V238) and above now ships with a [PawnIO](https://pawnio.eu/) build of [LHM](https://github.com/LibreHardwareMonitor/LibreHardwareMonitor). This will fix the anti-virus problems encountered with WinRing0, as it is no longer shipped with FanControl.  You may still use V237 or any version before if you want to keep the WinRing0 version.
+
+There is a known issue where FACEIT will block the new driver. See this [issue](https://github.com/namazso/PawnIO.Setup/issues/1).
+
+## WARNING ( V237 and below )
+
+As of 09/04/2025, Winring0 (FanControl.sys) is flagged as [Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/issues/3410#issuecomment-3254057373) by Windows Defender. This will cause sensors to not be detected.
+You do not need to open an issue on the subject. Any new issues with this exact problem will be closed as duplicate.
+
+If you experience this issue, you may:
+
+* Update to the latest version
+* (Can't officialy recommend) whitelist/exclude the detection in Windows Security/Defender. Read the [official microsoft response/article](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/microsoft-defender-antivirus-alert-vulnerabledriver-winnt-winring0-eb057830-d77b-41a2-9a34-015a5d203c42) carefully. 
+* With [V235 to V237](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/releases), you can easily [use an alternative LHM branch](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/issues/3410#issuecomment-3258597822) that doesn't use WinRing0. Consider this a Beta, as it hasn't been widely tested yet. It may not work, be unstable, not be reliable, you get the idea. 
 
-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
+* New seperate "Up" and "Down" hysteresis for graph, linear and trigger fan curves

 ## FAQ
 * __Q__: What settings should I set in my BIOS to play along nicely with FanControl?
 <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.
-* __Q__: My Nvidia cards won't go below 30% and doesn't go to 0 RPM, why?
+* __Q__: My NVIDIA graphics card has 3 fans, but only 2 control cards show up in the UI, why?

 <br>__A__: [See here](https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases/wiki/Nvidia-30%25-and-0-RPM)
 * __Q__: There is no control cards / control cards are missing / control cards are not changing my fan speeds, what's the issue?
