It remains unclear to me what modification was done by the other technician shortly after you had shown him your back. But if the specialists' modification involves bypassing the spider resembling IC, then the magnetron may soon face execution due to improperly metered voltage and current. Well, thats only if there is no other IC that oversees current and voltage metering to the magnetron. In my view, I stand corrected though, possibly getting the spider IC out of the control way may lay off the thermal switch and alarm beside other important functional systems that the spider IC controls. The angular view of the taken photos only shows a few primary circuit components. So I cant say with certainty that the magnetron will soon face the hangmans noose because there could be a control IC thats out of visibility. If the unseen IC controls power to the magnetron without being influenced by the spider IC, then I can imagine that the microoven will see many days and nights of the magnetrons' heating loyalty.

Good Job!Imoudu,
Capacitors are unpredictable while testing, Better to try using some working one.

Initially, I was unsure what changes had taken place but then realised the electronic touch-controls on the bottom of the microwave control panel had become defunct and that a manual switch/timer had been installed to replace them. If my understanding is incorrect then accept my apologies.

Using the microwave oven without the Sharp control board probably meant using the oven without power control or some other function. Like no working beeper function. But if even after modification without that board the blown fuse was caused by the bad HV capacitor, it probably also meant that the control board was still fine? Sadly you didn't share the drawing mentioned. Your previous repair on this oven as article 988 of date 17/11/22 sadly didn't show anything.
