Windows update + Lenovo Vantage will give you everything, drivers, firmware, BIOS update, etc. The app will see the serial number and model number, then find out what you need.

Poorly.

I kid.

The other answer already given is a good one. Vantage pulls from both Windows and Lenovo data sets and queries your system to make sure you get everything you could use.

The only thing I've found really helpful is the battery health info. Use it or don't, it's hardly a necessity.

For this I always use Lenovo System Update. The tool is not so overloaded and you still get the drivers and firmware updates.

if your system is supported, try installing this: https://support.lenovo.com/il/en/solutions/hf003321

It's the older build with all of the original functionality and none of the newer version's garbage. That package also has the instructions on how to disable some of the unnecessary functionality in Vantage such as advertising, the WiFi security crap, and etc.

It was very good, with a lot of good functions including a battery reset one. Then they “upgraded” it and it's basically useless. There are older versions that can be downloaded from some websites.

Np, hope it works well!

Read the instructions, there's a document in that file that should clarify how to install it and configure the group policy/registry edits.

i5 9300H, 1660ti, 17" 144hz

Mine looks just like that. I have the same model

Thanks. Jeez that's a shame. I'm enjoying the laptop otherwise.

Gen 10 means tenth generation, the current generation of certain Legion laptops.

Vantage is an app that comes in most Lenovo laptops and has performance utilities, tracks your warranty, etc. Most performance settings are in Vantage for laptops older than Gen 10, but it still comes in new Legions because it has some utilities that Space doesn't.

Space is another app that Lenovo introduced for Gen 10s that brings all performance/RGB/gaming utilities from Vantage in one app. It's more focused, still has a little bloat, but works just fine for me.

Toolkit is a third party tool created by someone to keep the utilities from Vantage without the bloat and to have more control. It's not official, I haven't tried it, but people here seem to love it and it must be for a reason.

legion toolkit is much better than vantage imo as it shows more info and gives u option to have shortcut actions to do several tasks in one click like u can set a brightness percentage when only opening a certain app, along with changing thermal modes and many more

Im using LLT and tbh it wont affect the perfomance that much. But you got more setting and more information out of it. Vantage is likely a bloatware for me

Does something like that exist? I've only seen the one that has the network boost, hybrid toggle, and overdrive (or w/e it's called. Does that option actually help?)

I don't think that exists. One of the worst things about my 7i (there aren't a lot), is that Vantage is super basic. It doesn't show anything of importance for gamers.

Please someone, prove me wrong lol

In the driver page under the software and utility tab there is a vantage service driver, try installing that first then the actual vantage

send pics of the "regular" version

Yes! I think it sort of fixed itself, but I redownloaded some of the drivers and also restarted the computer, and that did the trick

Still no taskbar battery widget on w11?

Aaaaaad I remove it after initial setup.

seems like Dolby options are removed?

ARM64 now as well

It was fine, no need to change? Maybe make it faster and lighter?

Lenovo Vantage has no place on ThinkPads, ThinkPads should only be used with Lenovo Commercial Vantage

I still use the “consumer” version of vantage on all 3 of my Thinkpads. I had no idea there was a commercial version. Updates drivers and bios with no problems.

I've run vantage on a 2020 Legion gaming laptop and it was useful. Having said that, I hear that commercial vantage is better and I just installed the one on my X1 nano, but I'm not sure if it was the commercial variant...

I use it to limit my battery charge to protect the battery and update drivers but that's about it

I still let install missing drivers for me for fresh installed windows machine, still works good for me

Have you installed all your drivers and software from the lenovo support site. Any missing drivers being highlighted in device manager

I know that's not a fix for your Vantage problems, but maybe take a look at LenovoLegionToolkit, it does the same as Vantage but without the bloat and background services. I think it's way better.

https://github.com/BartoszCichecki/LenovoLegionToolkit/releases/tag/2.2.1

It doesn't go away until you buy their shit.

Legion is supposed to fix that with an update.

Revo uninstaller freeware and its fixed

Delete Vantage and use the Lenovo legion tool kit from GitHub.
