How to run windows 10/11 in safe mode

Today, I am going to show you how to run Windows in safe mode.

  

SAFE MODE

Safe mode is the safest startup method provided by Windows system, and it starts with only limited files and drivers. If the error does not occur in this safe mode, then there is nothing wrong with the basic settings or device drivers.

In most cases, Windows automatically runs in safe mode when there is a problem, but in this post, I will explain how to manually start Windows 10 /11 in safe mode.

 

This article will help you to run your windows in safe mode without problem.

 

There are three easy ways which you can follow to launch windows in safe mode.

  1. Using F8 key at start up
  2. Using system configuration tool
  3. From login screen

 

1. The first is how to enter safe mode by pressing the F8 key at startup.

In Windows 7, the F8 key is enabled by default during booting, but in Windows 10/11, you have to manually enable this button.

So, let's activate the F8 key first.

 

1) Type cmd in the Windows Start menu. And run as administrator as shown in the capture below.

 

cmd



2) When the cmd window appears, type bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy in the window.

bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy

This will output a message indicating that the operation completed successfully.

 

cmd


3) Now the F8 key has been activated. Now turn off the computer and reboot it again.

4) If you keep pressing the F8 key from the initial black screen, various menus appear. Find SAFE MODE here and run it.

 

2. It is a method using msconfig.

1) Open msconfig from the Windows Start menu.

msconfig

2) Go to the Boot tab in the msconfig window and then check safe boot and click Ok.

 


3) Now, if you press the Restart button, it will run in safe mode after reboot.


4) After executing safe mode and correcting the error, go back to step 1) and turn off safe boot mode in msconfig.

 

3. boot into safe mode from screen mode.

 

1) Enter the screen mode. Click My Account from the Start menu button, and the Sign Out button will appear. You can enter screen mode here.

 


 

2) In screen mode, press Restart while holding down the SHIFT key.



 

3) After rebooting, a blue screen will appear as shown below. Please click troubleshoot here.



 

4) Click Advanced Options in Troubleshoot.




5) Go to Startup Settings in Advanced Options.


 

6) Now, click the Restart button on the Startup Settings screen.



 

7) Now the computer will reboot and the safe mode boot options will appear automatically. Here, you can boot by selecting the normal safe mode without internet or safe mode with internet (using networking).


Here are three ways to enter safe mode. Was it helpful? It's a little inconvenient for me, but I think the third method was the easiest way to enter safe mode.

 

I encourage you to try running the safe mode method according to your computer's situation.
