Would you please add "can't find sensors notification" switch?

When one or more sensors are removed, please DO NOT show pop up notification.

I was encouting a graphics card problem, it wasn't always detected and I can't shutdown via the power button due to the pop up notification. I was facing a blank screen and found all this via the MS RDClient phone app.

The notification can be friendly.

So.... the software should fail silently? That's not user friendly either.

Your case is a very special case where you had problem with your hardware and no image on your monitor.

For this proposed setting to accommodate your specific situation, it would have to be on ahead of time, and you most likely would never have had it unless it was on by default. Having such a setting on by default would defeat the whole point of error detection in the software, so I'm not sure your request makes sense for most users.

Friendly meant the priority of the notificaiton can be lower. There are other ways to notify, such as red cross tray icon with bubble notification.

Maybe...pop up but do not keep the focus on it so that it won't prevent the PC from shutting down, or add hotkey so that I can use D key for Discard, I can press Esc to ignore and exit the UI.

If the switch is considered, of course it can't be off by default. For users who don't rely heavily on fans, or maybe master users, they can switch off the notification.
