what is safe mode and what going on in back ground in safe mode in windows 11 and windows 10

  Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode in Windows operating systems that starts the computer with a minimal set of drivers and services. When you boot your computer into Safe Mode, only basic files and drivers required to run the operating system are loaded, which can help diagnose and fix various issues with your computer. 

In Safe Mode, many system services and startup programs are disabled, which can help to identify if the issue is caused by a third-party application or driver. For example, if a software application or driver is causing issues with your computer, it may not run in Safe Mode, which can help you to pinpoint the problem. 

In Safe Mode, you can perform various troubleshooting tasks, such as running anti-virus software, updating drivers, uninstalling software, and more. Additionally, you can use Safe Mode to access System Restore, which can be used to restore your computer to a previous state when it was working properly. 


In terms of what's going on in the background in Safe Mode, there are fewer processes running than in a normal boot. The following system services and features are typically disabled in Safe Mode: 

  • 1.All non-essential system services 

  • 2.Audio and sound devices 

  • 3.The network stack (including internet access) 

  • 4.Hardware acceleration for graphics 

  • 5.Automatic updating of Windows and other software 

By disabling these features, Safe Mode provides a "bare bones" environment that is designed to help diagnose and fix issues with your computer. 


If you are experiencing an error message while loading Windows, there are several potential causes and solutions depending on the specifics of the error message. Here are some general steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue: 

  1. 1.Boot into Safe Mode: Restart your computer and repeatedly press the F8 key until the Advanced 2. Boot Options menu appears. Use the arrow keys to select "Safe Mode" and press Enter. Safe Mode loads a minimal set of drivers and services, which can help diagnose and fix the issue. 

  1. 3. Run Startup Repair: If your computer is running Windows 7, or windows 10 or windows 11 or later, you can try running Startup Repair from the Advanced Boot Options menu. Select "Repair your computer" and follow the prompts to run Startup Repair. 

  1. 4. Check hardware: If the above steps don't work, the issue may be caused by a hardware problem. Check to make sure that all cables are properly connected, and that there are no loose components inside your computer. 

  1. 5. Use System Restore: If the error started occurring recently, you can try using System Restore to restore your computer to an earlier point in time when it was working properly. 

  1. 6. Reinstall Windows: If none of the above steps work, you may need to reinstall Windows. Make sure you have a backup of all important files before reinstalling. 

If you are still experiencing issues, you may want to consult a professional computer technician for further assistance.
