Users of old ThinkPads (like T450 or earlier) and Win10, do you use the Lenovo Vantage from Microsoft Store? I just reformatted mine. Definitely need an app to set my battery charge limit.
Besides that, everyone here already upgraded their Win10 to 1903? Any bugs? Do you need to re-update certain drivers?

I m using T430s and Win 10 ver 1903. I don't use any Lenovo apps or programs. Everything from "stock" Win 1903 works perfectly out of the box. No extra drivers needed.
