You must be the dumbest person on this planet. I just googled and the
first link I got is this:

https://www.digitalcitizen.life/4-ways-boot-safe-mode-windows-10


https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Windows+10+Safe+mode%3F&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=xiGSWu-oH6-sgAbO36fwDg


Margo must be regretting marrying you.

How to get into safe mode with regular mode doesn't
work.

what is "safe Mode with regular mode"?

F8 no longer works.


This was deprecated since Windows 8 came out.

As I said nutters like you shouldn't be using Windows; Linux is for
idiots like you.

Good Guy,

Not only are you stupid, you are an ass hole.

I found all these. For when regular mode does not work,
the only option in the link you sent was to boot off
an install disk, which may or may not be around.

I am looking for a replacement for f8.

And next time, read what I write and keep your asinine
comments to yourself.

Start the computer, wait ten or fifteen seconds, then press and hold the
power button until the computer shuts down. Do this three times and you
should be able to get into the Recovery Environment.

that's completely wrong when you say " the only option in the link you
sent was to boot off
an install disk" and you really need to learn to read things and
concentrate when reading. Idiots have no place on windows newsgroup.

I am looking for a replacement for f8.


The link was provided but you like to be spoon fed. Go **** yourself.


And next time, read what I write

I read everything between lines when I reply. Now go and take lessons
to read technical documents.

and keep your asinine
comments to yourself.


I post on a public newsgroup and if you don't like it, then you should
know what you can do about it. Is that clear or do I need to simplify
it further? I don't spoon feed idiots.

Hi Ben,

I have done this by accident before, but I did not realize it
could be done on purpose. Thank you!

The one time I did this, I had a customer with a crashed upgrade
that could not afford 10 minutes of my time, so I said to
myself, "let **** Windows off" and kept shutting it off until
I got the recovery screen. Then I set it to repair and
left her watching it. It took all day, but it worked.

I did not realize this was an actual feature. It was
more fun when I though I was ****ing Windows off.

:-)

Give this a try, I've not tried it. MS keeps screwing with W10, so it
may no longer work.

There's a fun way here to do it. Apparently there is a registry setting available.

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/for...nto-safe-mode/

"Kaspersky Registry Editor"

https://support.kaspersky.com/us/8110

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\SafeBoot\Option]
"OptionValue"=dword:00000001

*******

It's possible to do an offline bcdedit, using Command Prompt
from an installer DVD. But, that doesn't always work, for example
if a user has a dual boot situation (a lot of these experiments of
mine, they "fail" on my Win10/Win10 dual boot setup). The dual boot
seems to scuttle some of the bcdedit "normal" behaviors. The dual boot
even does "double starts" because it's such a goofy implementation.

The first command, allows you to install the boot menu option
on a normally working OS. I left the big space here, to match
up with the second example below.

bcdedit /set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu True

The second command is done from an installer DVD or emergency WinPE CD
and the Command Prompt on there. First, you must use "dir" profusely,
and convince yourself what drive letter the OS hidden BCD file is
actually on.

For example, I typically see D: while the emergency boot OS is always
on X: . It's up to you to figure out whether the BCD is on the
OS partition, on System Reserved, or whatever. Now, the VM I tested
this in, it was on C: but it took me a few moments to find it :-/
Because it's on C: , I might not even have needed the offline
format to do it. You can't miss, because it'll confirm it edited
*something*. Just make sure the *something* isn't the wrong
hard drive etc.

dir /AH C:\boot\BCD # verify it is there.

bcdedit /store C:\boot\BCD /set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu True

Here's a sample of the result. Some of the BCD items displayed by
using just "bcdedit" as a command, the True and False are displayed
as Yes and No.

https://s14.postimg.org/m3czjyvch/win10_boot_menu.gif

You can probably adjust the 30 second timer to a lesser value as
well, so your customers won't freak out.

Later, you can delete the DisplayBootMenu item entirely, or you
can just leave it there and set it to False, to get rid of it.

*******

I'm sure you can look up the other methods as easily
as I can :-) I just thought that one was fun, for the
Neanderthal aspects of it. Everybody loves to see a WinXP
black-colored menu on their computer, right ?

This works with any screen where you see the power button. Lock screen,
start, etc.

Dude! Now that is cleaver! I have Kaspersky;'s registry editor
working on my Fedora disks too. It would probably also work with
chntpw, but be a big pain in the butt to master.

Thank you!

Hi Patrick,

You misunderstand. I am looking for a way to get into safe mode
when regular mode won't boot up. So, it has to be done
outside Windows.

Hi Ken,

I think you misunderstood my question. Windows has to be working
for that to work.

I do believe I will use this for working versions though. msconfig
has been my go to method for when Windows is working, but only because
I can remember "msconfig". My big problem with msconfig has
been forgetting to put it back after I am through with it.

Thank you for the help!

-T
