Fan on high all time after Sonoma.

2020 MacBook Pro 13" (Fully maxed out). After Sonoma update, fan directly from startup is producing the loudest noise I've ever heard from it. MacBook book is very warm straight from startup. I've done several SMC resets but as soon as it boots up it goes straight to jet engine level. I'm not running anything....

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.0

Still issues ?


1 - There could be something in the main User Account playing up. To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac. Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.


2 - If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.


3 - Download the Application Etrecheck directly from the Developer.
