Windows has deprecated Taskbar toolbars for Windows 11. Accordingly, "Lenovo Commercial Vantage" for Windows 10/11 no longer includes a Battery Toolbar that was previously bundled in Vantage and Settings apps, mimicking the Power Manager / Battery Maximiser Toolbar from software of olde.
Prior to releasing Lenovo Settings, Lenovo had released a standalone Battery Toolbar software called Lenovo Companion Battery. The installer can still be downloaded from Lenovo's website and it enables a basic Toolbar:

Clicking on the Toolbar opens up some shortcuts buttons that no longer work properly. But my main objective is just to have a green Battery Toolbar on my taskbar because I like the look.

That's a very cool piece of software!axur-delmeria wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 1:33 amThis is what I use on my newer Thinkpads: https://batterychargemanager.com/
EDIT: works as intended but can you hide it in the taskbar? And make it run on startup? Doesn't seem like it...
EDIT2: wait, does it actually save the battery threshold settings? Amazing!
