Terrible Laptop. Purchased Dec 2020- had AC jack issue but bought another AC Charger. One month later computer could not charge. Called Lenovo & warranty was one month expired!! Best Buy and local Geek wanted $200 to repair a $249 laptop! Never had problems with HP & Dell. I purchased a new HP with 8 gig memory & 512
Harddrive. I WILL NEVER BUY LENOVO AGAIN!!

The Lenovo IdeaPad 1-14 laptop, model number 81VS0001US, will boot from off to the Windows 10 Desktop in less than 20-seconds. If you are getting slower boot times, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.
