BOOTCAMP Fans NOT Working on Windows 10 - MBP 2018

I literally just bought a Macbook Pro 2018 model last Thursday. After installing everything on macOS its all good.

The last thing i needed is to install Windows 10 on Bootcamp like my old Macbook Pro has. The NEW MBP 2018 is overheating on Windows and is not turning the fans AT ALL.

The GPU and CPU are running over 90c and the fans are not ON at all. I need to know if this is a software issue since on macOS i do not have this problem.

Can i change Bootcamp drivers to another older version that doesnt do this?

I am even considering returning the laptop so i need to know if anyone with a Macbook Pro 2018 i7 2.6ghz model is having the same issue on Bootcamp?

MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

Is on Active on a High Performance Plan which should make the fan run even when you start downloading stuff.

The fan can not be heard at all. i have my previous Macbook Pro with me and it doesn't do this.

I cant even run Cinebench cuz the CPU gets so hot the rendering starts to stutter. Same thing playing games
