On your phone, on the same Wi-Fi, scan the QR code shown on the PC. The code is single-use and lasts about 3 minutes.
Open a fan, drag its curve, apply. On Gigabyte boards the curve is written into the chip and keeps working with FanPilot closed.
FanPilot’s files aren’t signed yet: free signing for open-source projects has been requested from the SignPath Foundation. A new program with no verifiable publisher that asks for Administrator and talks to the hardware is exactly what SmartScreen (“Windows protected your PC”) and some antivirus programs block.
To check that a file is exactly the one published (built by the CI from the source, never on a personal PC), download it and the SHA256SUMS.txt from the same release, then run in PowerShell, in the download folder:
(Get-FileHash .\FanPilot-0.1.0-win-x64-setup.exe).Hash -eq ((Select-String -SimpleMatch 'FanPilot-0.1.0-win-x64-setup.exe' .\SHA256SUMS.txt).Line -split '\s+')[0]True means the file is the release’s. False: don’t use it, download it again.
With the hash checked, on the SmartScreen warning: “More info” › “Run anyway”.
Who builds, approves and signs FanPilot’s releases, and how.
