Lenovo provides a range of software, including productivity tools, security solutions, creative suites, and cloud storage. We partner with leading software vendors such as Microsoft, Adobe, Foxit, Norton, CyberLink, and more to offer premium applications for work, creativity, and security. Some software is pre-installed on Lenovo devices, while others are available as standalone purchases.

Lenovo partners with a variety of software vendors that offer both software bundling with a Lenovo system and software that can be purchased without a system.

Lenovo offers two ways to bundle software when purchasing a new PC:

1. Embedded Bundle (Pre-Installed on Your Computer) – When customizing your PC using the "Configure Your PC" option, you can select software that will be pre-installed on your device. The software cost is included in your system’s total price (not listed separately), and you’ll get a notification from the Lenovo Vantage app when your PC arrives. You can then download it directly from Vantage and start using it right away.
2. Soft Bundle (License Delivered Separately) – If you add software after clicking "Add to Cart" or buy it from the Lenovo Software Store, you’ll receive a separate license via email. The software is listed separately on your receipt, and you can download it from your digital locker at your convenience.

Yes! Lenovo offers exclusive discounts on software when it’s bundled with a new system. When customizing your PC through the "Configure Your PC" option or adding software at checkout, you can access special pricing on popular software titles from our partners.

It depends on the software. Some, like Microsoft Office 365 and antivirus solutions, require a subscription, while others may be available as a one-time purchase.

After purchasing standalone software or soft bundling software, you will receive an activation key via email. After embedding software, you’ll get a notification from the Lenovo Vantage app when your PC arrives.

Try restarting your device, checking for updates on Lenovo Vantage, and ensuring your system meets the software’s requirements. If the issue persists, call Lenovo customer service at 1-855-253-6686 or chat with an online representative.

Some software licenses allow transfers, while others are tied to a specific device. Check the software’s licensing terms or contact Lenovo support for guidance.
