Windows 10: Windows safe mode not working properly

Whenever i go into safe mode and try to go to the windows defender from the settings it just shows a blank screen saying "security at glance" and when i try to go into the defender from the search, an error pops up saying "the system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow malicous users to gain control of this application." also when I go to updates and security in the settings, in the updates tab it just says "something went wrong try to reopen settings later." By the way none of this happens when Im in normal mode. I ran a scan using malware bytes and windows defender in the normal mode. I have the latest windows installed. Im very confused.. Is anyone else having this issue?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Can't boot into Normal/Safe Mode with Networking, only safe mode...

Good Evening,
I could do with some pointers on resolving an issue. I can only boot into windows in safe mode in Windows 10. Normal mode and safe mode with networking doesn't work. The problem occurred after a windows update. I have removed the latest updates that were installed and cleared any pending ones but it still won't boot properly. I have also run the troubleshooter and tried to recovery to an earlier date which also doesn't work.
The laptop is a HP ENVY 17 notebook. At boot it just gets to the HP logo with the circular loading icon and no further and can only boot it into safe mode. Can anyone recommend the next steps? I have also tried the following;

• stopping startup items
• uninstalling hardware drivers
• removing recent software
• running troubleshooters at boot
• sfc scan
• diagnostic/selective startups with minimal services running

Would the fact that I cant boot into Safe Mode with Networking imply its a network driver related issue?
Bit of a dead end really, any help would be much appreciated
Kind regards
Trevor
