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.

•Communications Utility

The Communications Utility program provides a central location for integrated camera and microphone settings. It controls advanced settings for the integrated microphone and camera to optimize Web conferencing and Voice over IP (VOIP) experience.

•Fingerprint Software

The integrated fingerprint reader provided on some keyboards enables you to enroll your fingerprint and associate it with your power-on password, hard disk password, and Windows password. As a result, fingerprint authentication can replace passwords and enable simple and secure user access. A fingerprint reader keyboard is available with select computers or can be purchased for computers that support this option.
