Unable to exit from safe mode
Manlio Laschena:
As I was not able to create a recovery point, on Windows 7 Pro 64 B, I tried to use Tweaking repair. After a full run of all applicable items I exit the program and re-boot.
From that moment on I was unable to boot in normal mode. Msconfig shows "normal" mode , but boot in safe mode. I did many attempts and tested several solutions, reading all the available docs on the Net, without any good result. Can some one give me an hint ?
Thanks

Try this - boot up into the Advanced Boot options - select Repair your Computer and navigate to the Recovery Environment.
Select Command Prompt and enter bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot
Follow that with exit to close the cmd window then click on Restart.
Manlio Laschena:
Thanks a lot as I solved with your hint after a full day of useless trials.
Now I would like to understand more about the failure: i.e. why I was unable to return to normal boot by msconfig or other attempts. Does this mean that the BootMgr registry was firmly written with a safeboot lock ? If yes, would be necessary in the Tweaking application to provide a "return" instruction at the end of repairs (or I have not seen it ?).
My attempts to solve, prior of your determined suggestion, was stopped by a system error " cannot determine file system of drive ..", while a chkdsk resulted in no error and NTFS system. Also this was a mistery for me !
Again thanks for your suggestion that shows your knowledge of the matter.
Boggin:
The program is supposed to execute that command.
I'll bring this to Shane's attention as it has occurred in an earlier version of the program.

Thanks - this works with Windows 10 (and probably 8) as well. You need to press Shift as you click Shutdown in order to access the Advanced menu.
Whatever happened to Windows 9 ???
