There will be a time that you need to restart your Windows 10 installation with non-core components disabled to troubleshoot your system. In previous version of Windows, you would tab or press F6 key to boot into Safe Mode. Accessing Safe Mode in Windows 10 can be frustrating because you need to access it from Startup Settings or from the Advanced Startup Options.
The fastest way to access Safe Mode in Windows 10 is via Command Line. Here are the steps,
- Launch elevated privilege Command Prompt
- Then type the following command,
bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal
- Restart your system to boot into Safe Mode
- To reboot Windows normally, you need to type
bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
- Restart you computer to boot into your Windows 10
