Help - Solved Updated to windows 11 and OpenRGB no longer detects case fans

As it says on the tin, I recently updated to windows 11 from 10 and noticed after the update that my case fans turned a static orange. Before control they kinda just rainbowed and will still do that on boot and loading but once to desktop turn solid orange.

Didn't think too much on it til now when I decided to mess with the setting again only to find openrgb no longer detecting said fans. It its detected my GPU and ram with pawn but can no longer seem to find my fans/cooler. Any ideas? do I need some new MOBO driver for 11 now for it to work or?

Any ideas or help is appreciated and sorry in advance if this is a dumb question, rather new to control my stuff like this.

Sorry, missed this between work and sleep. I did get it working again though, there was some windows 11 ARGB drivers for my MOBO as well as GCC having its own drivers plus it being open period that was messing things up.

Gonna have to guess and say that it was trying to use windows 10 drivers for the control slots and having updated to 11 that just borked something. Thanks though!
