Lenovo Welcome
The Lenovo Welcome program introduces you to some innovative built-in features of Lenovo and guides you
through a few important setup tasks to help you make the most of your computer.
Fingerprint Software
The integrated fingerprint reader provided on some keyboards enables you to enroll your fingerprint and
associate it with your Windows password. As a result, fingerprint authentication can replace Windows
password and enable simple and secure user access. A fingerprint reader keyboard is available with some
certain computer models or can be purchased for computers that support this option.
Lenovo Solution Center
Note: Depending on the date when your computer was manufactured, your computer is preinstalled with
either the Lenovo Solution Center program or the Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox program for diagnostic
purposes. For additional information about the Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox program, see “Lenovo
ThinkVantage Toolbox” on page 72.
The Lenovo Solution Center program enables you to troubleshoot and resolve computer problems. It
combines diagnostic tests, system information collection, security status, and support information, along
with hints and tips for maximum system performance. See “Lenovo Solution Center” on page 72 for detailed
information.
SimpleTap
The SimpleTap program provides you with a quick way to customize some basic computer settings such as
muting the speakers, adjusting the volume, locking the computer operating system, launching a program,
opening a Web page, opening a file, and so on. You also can use the SimpleTap program to access the
Lenovo App Shop, from which you can download various applications and computer software.
