    My cursor is stuck in select mode.


    Anywhere I move the cursor, with the mouse or keypad, selects or highlights the text for action. This get mysteriously turned on by some random keystrokes and I cannot turn it off, not even restarting. I have an HP envy.

    :)

    Stuck in safe mode in windows 10

    Safe mode is intended to help fix most, if not all problems within an operating system, it's not good if we got stuck on it. To correct this, we suggest that you follow the steps below to exit out of Safe mode:

    • Open Run command by pressing Windows key + R
      keys on the keyboard and type msconfig in the command box and press
      Enter.
    • Under General tab, put a check on Normal Startup option.
    • Reboot the system and check if the changes are effective.

    Let us know if you are able to exit out of Safe mode with these steps.
