Lenovo programs overview
This topic provides information about some Lenovo programs.
Note: Depending on the model, some of the programs might not be available.
• Access Connections (Windows 7)
The Access Connections program is a connectivity assistant program for creating and managing location
profiles. Each location profile stores all the network and Internet configuration settings needed for
connecting to a network infrastructure from a specific location such as a home or an office.
By switching between location profiles as you move your computer from place to place, you can quickly
and easily connect to a network with no need to manually reconfigure your settings and restart the
computer each time.
• Client Security Solution (Windows 7)
The Client Security Solution program protects your computer by securing client data and deflecting
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 the computer security.
• Communications Utility (Windows 7)
The Communications Utility program enables you to configure settings for the integrated camera and
audio devices.
