Frequently asked questions
How do I partition my storage drive
Refer to Lenovo Support.
What should I do if my computer stops responding
Press and hold the power button until the computer turns off. Then restart the computer.
What should I do if I spill liquid on the computer
- Carefully unplug the ac power adapter and turn off the computer immediately. The more quickly you stop the
current from passing through the computer the more likely you will reduce damage from short circuits.
Although you might lose some data or work by turning off the computer immediately, leaving the computer on might make your computer unusable.
- Wait until you are certain that all the liquid is dry before turning on your computer.
Do not try to drain out the liquid by turning over the computer. If your computer has keyboard drainage holes on the bottom, the liquid will be drained out through the holes.

Why does my screen brightness change constantly
Your computer may include an ambient light sensor and the adaptive brightness feature is enabled. The light sensor can detect the intensity of the surrounding light. Using data provided by the sensor, the operating system can dynamically adjust the screen brightness.
The adaptive brightness feature of the operating system can be disabled. For Windows operating systems, adaptive brightness settings are usually found in Settings ➙ System ➙ Display.
Why does my computer start automatically when I open the lid
Your computer may have Flip to Start enabled. Many Lenovo notebook computers include a sensor that can detect the angle at which the lid is opened. When you open the lid, the sensor can detect this behavior. If Flip to Start is enabled, the computer will respond by starting up automatically.
If you don’t like this feature, you can disable it. Flip to Start can be enabled and disabled in:- Lenovo Vantage or Lenovo PC Manager

I pressed the Copilot key on my keyboard, but neither Copilot in Windows nor Windows Search opened. What could be the potential cause
Your Windows operating system version is not up to date and does not include the necessary software components. Update your Windows operating system to version 23H2 or later using Windows Update and then try again.
The Version 23H2 update may not be immediately available for your PC. You may need to periodically open Windows Update and manually check for updates to install the 23H2 update when it becomes available for your PC.
