Big Sur 11.2 Update - System Hot; Fans Running Auto update ran last night on my MacPro (late 2013). Anyone else experiencing issues with the fans? I closed all the apps, shut down the system for 15 minutes & restarted. In less than 5 minutes, the fans began running without any apps open. Is this a temporary issue related to the software update?

Fan problem after Macos Big Sur I was using Mojave and happy with that. Upgraded to Big Sur and that was a mistake for me obviously! The main problem is, my macbook's fan works all of a sudden. I thought at first (and after some search) this was because of the new system and when it get stabilized, it will stop. But it didn't. Later, I thought it was because of chrome and removed that. Use like that for apr. 2 months. It wasn't that again. I don't understand, what's with this OS? What should I do? One of the main reasons that I choose this laptop was there wasn't any fan noise. When it starts, I close the lid until it stops and continue onward but it's very annoying. If anyone helps, I would be very grateful.
