how to exit safe mode

5 hours ago 4

To exit Safe Mode, the steps depend on your device type and how Safe Mode was activated. Here are the common methods:

1. Restart your computer normally:

Click the Start menu.
Click the Power button.
Select Restart.
This usually boots the system out of Safe Mode if the issue is resolved

2. Using System Configuration (msconfig):

Press Win+R, type msconfig, and press Enter.
Go to the Boot tab.
Uncheck the "Safe boot" option.
Click Apply and OK.
Restart your computer.
This disables Safe Mode boot if it was enabled via System Configuration

3. Using Command Prompt:

Open Command Prompt as administrator.
Run the command:
bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot (or {current} in some cases)
Restart your computer.
This removes Safe Mode boot flag set by bcdedit commands

4. Using Advanced Startup:

Open Settings > Recovery.
Under Advanced Startup, click Restart now.
Navigate to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
After restart, press Enter to boot normally.
This exits Safe Mode if entered via Advanced Startup options

To exit Safe Mode:

Press and hold the Power button for about 30 seconds until the device restarts normally.
On some models (e.g., Samsung), you may need to hold Volume Down along with Power button.
Alternatively, use the notification panel to turn off Safe Mode if available

By following the appropriate method based on your device and how Safe Mode was entered, you can exit Safe Mode and return to normal operation.
