An introduction to Lenovo programs
This topic provides a brief introduction to some Lenovo programs.
Note: Depending on your computer model, some of the programs might not be available.
Access Connections
The Access Connections program is a connectivity assistant program for creating and managing location
proles. Each location prole stores all the network and Internet conguration settings needed for
connecting to a network infrastructure from a specic location such as a home or an ofce.
By switching between location proles as you move your computer from place to place, you can quickly
and easily connect to a network with no need to recongure your settings manually and restart the
computer each time.
Active Protection System
The Active Protection System program protects your hard disk drive when the shock sensor inside your
computer detects a condition that could damage the drive, such as system tilt, excessive vibration, or
shock. The hard disk drive is less vulnerable to damage when it is not operating. This is because when
the hard disk drive is not operating, the system stops it from spinning, and might also move the read
and write heads of the drive to areas that do not contain data. As soon as the shock sensor senses
that the environment is stable again (minimal change in system tilt, vibration, or shock), it turns the
hard disk drive on.
Client Security Solution
The Client Security Solution program protects your computer by securing client data and deecting
security breach attempts. It also can help manage your passwords, recover a forgotten password,
monitor security settings on your computer, and suggest how to enhance your computer security.
Communications Utility
Use the Communications Utility program to congure settings for the integrated camera and audio devices.
Fingerprint Software
If your system comes with a ngerprint reader, the Fingerprint Software program enables you to enroll
your ngerprint and associate it with your Windows password. As a result, the ngerprint authentication
can replace your password and enable simple and secure user access.
Lenovo Companion
Through the Lenovo Companion program, you can get the information about the accessories for your
computer, view blogs and articles about your computer, and check for other recommended programs.
