I don't understand. What disappeared? What is not working?
Do you see the main window? Do you have a screenshot? Did you try to reboot?

This fan was installed by someone who repaired my Mac a year ago and so far it had worked OK, I had updated several times with no problem. The control appeared on the menu line and I could hear the fan working. This morning the latest update was suggested and, given my experience in the past, I decided to agree to the update. The Apple menu line does not display any info anymore, the noise of the fan is not there, I cannot access the controls. I really do not know where to find them (in applications?) Your help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm moving your issue into a new topic.

So you installed version 1.1.12.2 ? Does it appear in /Applications?

Sorry, I cannot find the original file in Applications. Does it have a name that has nothing to do with Fan or Control? I hate to sound so dumb but I am at a loss here. Thanks.
Perhaps I will take my ginormous mac back to the repairperson and consult him?

It must be called "Macs Fan Control", if you're unable to locate it, re-download and copy to Applications again.
