  1. Using MSCONFIG I can't get it to remain on Normal StartUp


    Believe me I've tried a few suggestions from these parts. OR ... does it automatically go to Selective Startup everytime you access 'msconfig' but that Normal StartUp was applied when you booted? This is my real issue .. the following 2nd is just a nuisance, having to retype the same command over and over if you are tweaking msconfig. 2nd One other sideline. When you use The Start > Run option why isn't past commands saved in the dropdown?Thanks of course in advance. Appreciate our moderators and helpers!! ";-Dx

  2. cannot return to normal startup in MSCONFIG after running it in diagnostic startup.

    Hi Gary,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand you are not able to boot to in normal mode. Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

    Did you follow the below steps to enable the Normal startup?

    • Press Windows + R keys from the Keyboard.
    • Type msconfig and hit Enter.
    • Click on the General tab.
    • Select the Normal startup option.
    • Click on Apply and Ok.
    • Restart the system and check.
    If yes, you may follow the below steps to check if the computer boots to selective startup:

    • Press Windows + R keys from the Keyboard.
    • Type msconfig and hit Enter.
    • Select the General tab.
    • Select the Selective startup option, check the box for load startup services, load startup items, use original boot configuration will be enabled.
    • Restart the computer.
    If it boots successfully to selective startup then you can boot to normal startup from selective startup.

    Please check the above scenario and get back with the results.

    Thank you.

  3. msconfig is unable to set normal startup

    Hello, baktazjam

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble with msconfig. One common reason why msconfig is unable to set normal startup is that you have selected some options in the Advanced Troubleshooting Settings dialog box in msconfig. To use the normal startup option, you need to clear all of the check boxes in that dialog box, as indicated here: The Msconfig Startup Selection Reverts from Normal to Selective Startup - Microsoft Support

    Let me know if you need further assistance.

    Best regards

    Recovery to normal startup from diagnostic startup in windows 10

    Hi Dimas,

    There are different factors that can contribute to the issue you're facing that your computer wont boot up to the normal Windows 10 environment after using diagnostic startup. This could be caused by corrupted files or settings that need to be reconfigured.
    As a initial recommendation, kindly refer to the steps below to start the computer in normal mode.

    • Press Windows + R keys from the Keyboard.
    • Type msconfig and hit Enter.
    • Click on the General tab.
    • Select the Normal startup option.
    • Click on Apply and Ok.
    • Restart the system and check.

    We look forward to your response once you complete the steps.
