I've found that most times it's best to let it proceed but then it may depend upon what the update is for, frequently to correct a security issue. The BIOS/Basic Input Output System is independent from the Operating System itself, loads during the P.O.S.T. [Power On Self Test] to let the OS know what is available as to resources, works with all OSes.

That popup is generated by a Lenovo uutility and not by Windows.
To find out how to stop it appearing, search/ask Lenovo support & any user forum that they have.

Welcome to TenForums.
It's really worth making time to browse through the Tutorial index - there's a shortcut to it at the top of every page.- At the foot of the Tutorial index is a shortcut to download it as a spreadsheet.- Tutorials are also listed by category at Tutorials - there's also a shortcut to that at the top of every page.
- I download a new copy each month so I can benefit from Excel's filtering capabilities when I search for topics of interest.
- Both tutorial pages are searchable.
- You can also search for TenForumsTutorials in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:tenforums.com/tutorials after your search term. For example,
taskbar toolbars site:tenforums.com/tutorials
- And note that you can also search TenForums threads [rather than just searching tutorials] in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:tenforums.com after your search term. For example,
Search for drivers by HardwareID site:tenforums.com
[This is what the search box in the top-right corner of TenForums webpages does automatically]

Last time I let Lenovo update BIOS or drivers it broke my machine. I literally mean Lenovo official, Lenovo Vantage told me to update BIOS or drivers through it, which I did and that broke my machine. I have no interest in updating the BIOS on my machine.
I know.
Lenovo are useless.

Instead of using Vantage, use Lenovo System Update. It lets you to hide the updates.
Anything can happen with a UEFI update. If the update is not "critical", but "recommended", and the computer is out of warranty, consider not updating it.
