* operating system Windows 10 1909 x64

* NBFC version 1.6.3

Monitor the EC registers and save a report: ec-probe.exe monitor -r report.txt
If no timespan is provided, ec-probe will run until you cancel it by pressing Ctrl + C.

Absolutely the same issue i also tried to put Windows in Test mode but that had no effect.
NBFC Shows my CPU temp without a problem.
Some Configs show fan speed but its incorrect mostly around 150-160%

I can click enable and move the slider but nothing happens i find it weird that it even shows anything different than 0 on some profiles because the whole EC is only 00.

I was able to find what EC chip my laptop has it might be a good idea to post your also.

ITE
IT8995E-128
1735-DXS

EC chip? Do you mean that need to disassemble laptop to find it?

No just go on google and look for a dissasembly video of your laptop model and look for a chip that has any of these names on it.
ITE
Microchip/SMSC
Nuvoton
Renesas

I also found that my chip is not listed as supported on the RWeverything website :(
