    Hi,

    We understand your concern and we will provide the assistance required to help resolve the issue.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

    • Are you accessing the startup menu via Windows Settings or by inserting the Media Creation Tool?
    • Have you tried selecting other options in the Startup Menu?

    For now, I suggest that you try logging into Safe Mode from the option given below and check.

    • Tab on Windows button +R to open Run Command.
    • A dialog box will open type msconfig
    • Locate and select the Boot tab and select Safe with Minimal
      as option.
    • Restart Computer

    To return to normal mode, follow the above steps and uncheck Safe, reboot the computer.

    Your reply is very important to ensure a proper resolution. Please get back to us with the above information to assist you accordingly.

    In the startup settings menu to select safe mode press f4 or just 4. It does not work, system will not let me select anything, ctrl+alt+del doesn't work. Only thing that I have got to work is by pressing the power button. Anyone help me enter safe mode?

    Unable to access "Safe Mode" in Win 10

    Hi Michael,

    You can start Safe Mode in Windows 10 from Settings. To do so, kindly follow these steps:

    • Press Windows + I on your keyboard to open Settings. If that doesn't work, select the Start button in the lower-left corner of your screen, then select Settings.
    • Select Update & security > Recovery.
    • Under Advanced startup, select Restart now.
    • After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup
      Settings
      > Restart.
    • After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 4 or F4 to start your PC in Safe Mode. Or if you'll need to use the Internet, select 5 or F5 for Safe Mode with Networking.

    Should you have more concerns, feel free to post.

    Regards
