Where to download old versions of Power Manager?

#1 Post by Andrew479 » Mon Jun 22, 2020 4:27 am

Hi,
I have various TPs, and for a long time used 3.28 (I think) Lenovo Power Manager, the first version to support x230.
But today, PM is a part of vantage, which is quite bloated for my use. Is there a stash of older versions of PM I could download from somewhere?
I have 1.0 archived from R60 rescue disk, but that works only with WinXP.

Thanks,

Which version are you looking for and for which laptop? I have versions 3.25, 3.62, 3.67, 6.38, 6.40 (Vista+) and 1.48, 1.99g, 1.99j. 5.20 for WinXP.

In general, if you know the name of the package, you can still download many of them from Lenovo's website, even if the indexing is broken and the landing pages have been removed. Just append the name to the link below:

https://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/<packagename.exe>

For example:

https://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/8mu417ww.exe - gives you 3.67.

According to the the documentation history, that would be 6.11.

Not sure where / if that one can be downloaded, but 6.40 should cover your needs:
