how to get out of safe mode

To get out of Safe Mode, the easiest way is usually to simply restart the computer or device. If that does not work as expected, here are the detailed steps based on different systems:

For Windows:

1. Restart your computer normally by clicking Start > Power > Restart.
2. If the computer still boots into Safe Mode after restart:
   • Press Windows key + R, type msconfig, and press Enter.
   • Go to the Boot tab.
   • Under Boot options, uncheck the “Safe boot” checkbox.
   • Click Apply, then OK.
   • Restart your computer, and it should boot into normal mode.

Alternatively, you can exit Safe Mode using Command Prompt by running the command:

bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot

Then restart your computer.

For Android Devices:

1. Press and hold the Power button.
2. Tap Restart (or Power Off and then turn it back on).
3. Alternatively, press and hold the Volume Down and Power (Side) buttons simultaneously for about 7 seconds.
4. If the device continuously boots into Safe Mode, there might be a hardware issue with the Volume Down button, and professional assessment might be needed.

To exit Download Mode or Android Recovery Mode, follow on-screen instructions such as selecting "Reboot system now" using volume buttons and confirming with the Power button.

In most cases, a simple restart will get devices out of Safe Mode unless a persistent boot setting or hardware issue forces it repeatedly. For Windows, ensure the Safe Boot option is unchecked in System Configuration to prevent continuous safe mode booting.
