An introduction to Lenovo programs
This topic provides a brief introduction to Lenovo programs. Depending on your computer model, some of
the programs might not be available.
Active Protection System ™ The Active Protection System program protects your internal storage drive (such
as 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 internal storage drive is less vulnerable to damage when it is not operating.
This is because when the internal storage 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 on the internal
storage drive.
Auto Scroll Utility This program enhances your experience with window operation. The window
position of a foreground application is automatically adjusted.The scroll bar on a
user interface is also automatically adjusted.
Hotkey Features Integration Hotkey Features Integration is a utility package that enables you to select and
install utility programs specifically for the special keys and buttons on your

usability requirements. Installing related utility programs enables full functionality
of the special keys and buttons.
