Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. Files

The following are the Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. files I have gathered, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. as trusted, which means that the Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. files will appear with a green background and that there's no removal checkbox for the file. However, as you can see in the scan results below, a few of the anti-virus scanners detects the Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. file(s). My guess is that those detections are incorrect and that the files are safe. It's unlikely that Lenovo(Japan)Ltd. would ship a malware file.
