Windows 8 monitors the startup procedure and when problems are detected it automatically takes you to the new Recovery Mode. At this point you will be presented with the message: ‘Recovery. It looks like Windows didn't load correctly'.
Select the advanced repair options and choose Troubleshoot, Advanced options, ‘Windows Startup Settings', Restart. Your computer will boot into an ‘Advanced Boot Options' screen in which Safe mode can be selected.
If your computer loads normally, and you still want to start it on safe mode, follow these steps:
- Go to the Start screen and type msconfig. Launch System Configuration from the list of search results, then select its Boot tab. On this screen ,you can check a box to enable Safe boot, with various different types of Safe mode available below. Click Ok, then click Restart to boot your computer into Safe mode.
- There is a much easier way, however. If you are at the Windows 8 login screen, simply choose Restart and hold down the Shift key. You will arrive at the windows with options to troubleshoot your system from which you can select to boot in Safe Mode.
- If you have a problem with their PC and you are already logged in and can see only a black screen, hit CTRL, ALT, DEL to bring up the selection screen, and choose logout, restart. Then hold down the Shift key and you will be taken to the window via which you can choose Safe Mode.
