]]> Hello! Windows Server is a system focused on the business sector. In addition, Microsoft developed it as a safe, functional, and practical system. However, it is also susceptible to failure. Such as errors in drivers, services, or parameters of both the system itself and other components. To solve this type of failure, the Redmond company has incorporated the Safe Mode. With this mode, the system will start in a basic state. In other words, it will only make use of a limited set of files and drivers. Consequently, it will be much easier to rule out bugs and problems. So by being able to enter the system using this mode, we can then reverse any changes responsible for the malfunction. For that reason, it is important to know how to use this function. So let’s see, how to start in safe mode in Windows Server 2019/2016.

How to start in safe mode from the system.

Before we go any further, it is important to clarify that the safe mode has two options:

  • Safe mode: load basic controllers.
  • Safe mode with network functions. Includes network drivers and services needed to access the Internet and other computers on the local network.

In order to set up the safe mode, it is necessary to start the system in the advanced mode. If you are running the system, then you have a couple of options to start in advanced mode:

  • Press the Shift key and the off button at the same time. Once there, click on restart.
  • Press the Win+I combination to enter the Windows Settings. Then follow the path: Update & Security> Recovery. Once there, click on Restart Now.
Restart in advanced mode from the Windows settings.
