I am trying to access the CPU temperature information and the fan speeds. Ideally I'd like to also be able to set the fan speeds on a Dell Windows 11 computer. Is there any way to do this, I can't find any documentation on Dell's website regarding getting/setting these values.

I've used librehardwaremonitor to view this information, but unfortunately it doesn't get the fan speed information. Is Dell locking us from getting/setting fan speed information?

  • What have you looked at so far besides posting your 'request' here. And what code have you tried so far to do what you want? FWIW, look at [this suggestion](https://stackoverflow.com/a/3728433/645128). Or [this code](https://github.com/marcharding/DellFanControl). – ryyker Aug 16 '23 at 16:57

    It looks like it might be available via WMI https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/cimwin32prov/win32-fan. You can access WMI using `System.Management` https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/develop/core/clients/programming/how-to-read-a-wmi-object-by-using-system.management – Flydog57 Aug 16 '23 at 17:09
  • Why it is taged C? How is C related to C#? – 0___________ Aug 16 '23 at 17:14
  • You could use the System Monitoring Development Kit (https://www.cpuid-pro.com/products-system-monitoring-kit.php) – scopolamin Aug 16 '23 at 18:08
