Now there is a little cosmetic bug with icon on menubar (OSX 10.11.0): it is not created in any case. I tried to change icon with MFC preferences without success. This problem is not present on OSX 10.9.5 but I don't know about OSX 10.10.x.

Finally, I enclose logs for help about the problem of "excessive wakeups":
- MacsFanControl_2015-10-11-213551.wakeups_resource - generated by the system immediatly after the system startup
- Sample of MacsFanControl - generated with sample command (available on Activity Monitor)

Thank you for this great utility.
Ciao, Stefano.

FYI

New version 1.3.2.0 as of 10/11/2015 the icon in the menu bar disappears in about 2 minutes in Lion 10.7.5

It will reappear if I double click on the application but disappears again.

Hi there. I had exactly this same problem (running 10.7.5), after upgrading from v1.3.0.

The solution (Remember to write down your previous preferences/settings before doing this!!!):

1) Delete the app from Application folder - Trash it!

2) Use a robust file mgmt utility (I use File Buddy), to locate all remnants of previous installation (like .plist files) - Trash 'em!

3) Re-download and install 1.3.2 again, input previous preferences (that you've written down) and you'll be as happy as Larry!

Hope this helps. Cheers!
