    PC will work fine in safe mode, but shuts off and restarts in normal mode


    This has gone on for almost a week. I was watching something on YouTube when my PC randomly shut off and restarted.

    Cannot Enter Safe Mode / Computer boots normally

    I'm running Win 10 Pro 1903.

    Here are the steps I have taken to get into safe mode: Start button, settings, update and security, recovery, advanced startup, troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings, restart. The computer boots normally, not in safe mode. Any suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks in advance for your help and interest. .

  4. PC will work fine in safe mode, but shuts off and restarts in normal mode

    Safe mode problems

    Perhaps some of the safe mode files are corrupted.

    Disable auto restart on BSOD and see what error you get?
