Windows 10: startup selective not normal.

My startup always returns to selective, i don't know why.

what determines selective startup versus normal startup after clean boot and how to start with normal start up

Hi,

Performing a clean install overwrites all other content on the hard disk. Unlike a typical OS upgrade, a clean install removes that current operating system and user files during the installation process.

Often when users encounter problems that prohibit Microsoft Windows from operating normally, they're instructed to enter Safe Mode. This altered version of Windows allows users to correct issues so their computer will start properly.

Safe mode is a troubleshooting option for Windows that starts your computer in a limited state. Only the basic files and drivers necessary to run Windows are started. The word
Safe Mode appears in the corners of your monitors to identify which monitors mode you are using.

Usually, after the clean boot, you'll need to perform a System File Checker.
System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

Hope the above information helps.

Thank you.

3) How do the settings in services impact the startup making it normal or selective?

• The definition of each boot up is based on how you want your system to perform upon startup. Windows Selective Startup. improves overall system performance, boot time, and get rid of programs you don't want running in the background.

Hello Nyegaard, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

This is normal after the first time you made changes here. If you have all 3 items checked under Selective startup, then it'll be the same as having Normal startup selected.
