Hvernig á að ræsa Windows 11 í Safe Mode

Ræsir í Safe Mode can help you pinpoint the source of a problem on your Windows computer. If a problematic PC component works smoothly in Safe Mode, that implies that bad device drivers, bug-ridden third-party apps, incorrect system configurations, malware, or network-related issues are the root cause of the problem.

Windows has three different Safe Mode options. This tutorial will show you how to start your Windows 11 PC in Safe Mode and how its options differ.

1. Enter Safe Mode from the Windows Recovery Environment

Windows Recovery is the best route to start Windows 11 in Safe Mode if your PC isn’t booting up or doesn’t boot past a black/blank screen.

  1. Hold the power button until your PC shuts down completely.
  2. Wait for about 10 seconds and press the power button to turn your PC back on.
  3. Press the power button when your PC’s screen lights up or when the manufacturer’s logo appears on the screen. Keep holding the power button until your PC shuts down.
  4. Wait for about 5-10 seconds and press the power button to turn on your PC.
  5. Endurtaka skref #3 og skref #4, and your PC should load the Windows Recovery Environment (winRE) on the third try.
  6. Veldu leysa in the recovery environment.
  1. Veldu Frekari möguleikar.
  1. Veldu Uppsetningarstillingar.
  1. Veldu Endurræsa to load the Startup Settings options.
  1.  Press the corresponding number next to the Safe Mode option you want to boot.
  • Press 4 or F4 on your keyboard to boot into regular Safe Mode. This Safe Mode option strips all third-party apps and programs. A “Safe Mode” inscription will appear in the four corners of your PC’s screen. Windows will only load basic drivers and few options in the Settings menu. Consequently, you won’t be able to use the internet or make certain changes to your PC settings.
  • Press 5 or F5 to “Enable Safe Mode with Networking.” This option will load your PC’s network drivers, giving you access to the internet while in Safe Mode. You should only select this option if the problem you’re troubleshooting is network-related or requires access to the internet.
  • Press 6 or F6  to enable “Safe Mode with Command Prompt.” Unlike the other two options, this option loads a Command Prompt terminal on the screen. Use this option for advanced troubleshooting where you might need to run CMD commands. 

If you can’t enter the Windows Recovery Environment and your computer continues to boot into a blank screen, consider starting Windows 11 from a bootable USB drive. You can create a bootable USB drive on another Windows 11 PC using Microsoft’s media creation tool or by downloading Windows 11 disk image (ISO).

2. Enter Safe Mode From Windows Settings

Like older Windows versions, you can also enter Safe Mode in Windows 11 from the Settings app.

  1. Opnaðu Stillingar appið (ýttu á Windows lykill + I), veldu System í hliðarstikunni og veldu Recovery.
  1. Skrunaðu að hlutanum „Endurheimtarvalkostir“ og veldu Endurræsa núna next to “Advanced startup.”
  1. Veldu Endurræsa núna on the confirmation prompt to continue.

That’ll boot your PC into the recovery environment. Go to leysa > Frekari möguleikar > Uppsetningarstillingar > Endurræsa and press either 4, 5, eða 6 on your keyboard to enable your preferred Safe Mode option.

3. Start Windows 11 in Safe Mode From the Start Menu

Using the Start Menu is probably the easiest way to boot Windows 11 into Safe Mode. By holding the Shift key while restarting your PC, Windows will boot into the advanced startup menu, where you can enter Safe Mode.

  1. Ýttu á Windows lykill Og veldu máttartákn.
  2. Haltu inni Shift lykill á lyklaborðinu þínu og veldu Endurræsa.

That’ll load the advanced startup page. Then, as described in the method above, go to leysa > Frekari möguleikar > Uppsetningarstillingar > Endurræsa and select your preferred Safe Mode type.

4. Start Windows 11 in Safe Mode Using MSCONFIG

MSCONFIG stands for Microsoft System Configuration. It is a built-in Windows tool that lets you access system settings you may not find in the Settings app or Control Panel.

  1. Ýttu á Windows lykill on the keyboard or select the Leita táknmynd í verkefnastikunni.
  1. Gerð msconfig (aka System Configuration) in the search box and select Hlaupa sem stjórnandi in the result pane.

  1. Select your preferred Safe Mode option: Minimal, Alternate shell, Active Directory repair, eða Net.
  • The “Minimal” option will load basic drivers and settings in Safe Mode. However, you won’t be able to access the internet, use third-party apps, and modify certain system configurations.
  • “Alternate shell” will boot only the Command Prompt terminal in Safe Mode.
  • “Active Directory repair” is commonly used by network administrators in corporate environments to repair or restore an Active Directory database.
  • The “Network” option will load the network drivers in Safe Mode.
  1. Veldu gilda og veldu síðan OK að halda áfram.
  1. Veldu Endurræsa on the prompt to boot into Safe Mode. Otherwise, select Hætta án endurræsingar to reboot your PC later, especially if you have unsaved documents in other apps.

Athugaðu: Your PC will always boot into Safe Mode each time you restart your PC.

The following steps will disable Safe Mode and boot your PC normally:

Return to the “System Configuration” window (Click Home, gerð msconfig), uncheck Öruggt stígvélvelja OK, and reboot your PC to disable.

5. Enable Safe Mode From Command Prompt

Another way to boot Windows 11 into Safe Mode is via Stjórn Hvetja.

  1. Ýttu á Windows lykill, gerð Stjórn hvetja í leitarstikunni og veldu Hlaupa sem stjórnandi.
  1. Sláðu inn eða líma shutdown.exe / r / o in the console Command Prompt terminal and press Sláðu inn.

6. Enter Safe Mode from the Sign-in Screen

It’s also possible to enter Safe Mode without having to sign in to Windows. Select the máttartákn in the bottom-left corner of the sign-in screen, press and hold the Shift takkann og veldu Endurræsa.

Your PC will load the Windows Recovery Environment. As mentioned in the sections above, go to leysa > Frekari möguleikar > Uppsetningarstillingar > Endurræsa and select the Safe Mode option.

There’s More to Safe Mode

In addition to diagnosing performance and boot-related issues, entering Safe Mode can help diagnose malware infections and other system errors.
