Lenovo BIOS Certificate Tool and Module#

Overview#

The Lenovo BIOS Certificate Tool and Module is a PowerShell-based solution for working with certificate-based BIOS authentication on supported Lenovo commercial PC products.

Installing#

The Lenovo BIOS Certificate Tool and Module package can be installed directly from the PowerShell Gallery.

Install-Module 'Lenovo.Bios.Certificates'

Install-Script 'LnvBiosCertInterface'

This will install the script to the default script path:

  • Windows PowerShell v5: C:\Users\ {your user name} \WindowsPowerShell\Scripts
  • PowerShell v7: C:\Users\ {your user name} \Documents\PowerShell\Scripts

If this is the first time installing a script from the PowerShell Gallery, you will be given the option to establish the default script path and add it to the PATH environment variable.

The GUI script can then be launched in an elevated terminal by running:

LnvBiosCertInterface

Alternatively, you can download from:

https://download.lenovo.com/cdrt/tools/lbct_211_108.zip

Simply unzip to a local folder and run the GUI script in an elevated terminal. The GUI script will locate the module and import it automatically.
