The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting option for Windows that enables you to restart your computer with only a few files and drivers. More often than note, the mode allows you to determine whether a problem you are confronted with is related to the drivers or one of the system files.

d7xtech BootSafe Portable is a tiny program developed to help you reboot your computer in the Safe Mode of your choice.

The application does not restart installation per se, but rather you can decompress the archive and start using the program right away. The tool comes with a simple UI that displays all the available Safe Mode options along with the quick action button to restart Windows.

The program enables you to select between 4 modes of rebooting windows, namely Normal, Safe, Safe with Networking and Safe with Command Prompt Only. As their name suggests, the modes allow you to choose the most suitable method of restarting your computer, a feature that can help you identify if you are dealing with malware or a network problem, for instance.

While the utility comes with a Configure Only function, it is necessary to mention that all is done automatically and you can see the effects after you restart your computer. It would be nice if the application allowed you to do all the necessary configurations manually, so you can specify where you want to store the backup and what files you want the operating system to load.

Moreover, you should know that once you restart Windows, all programs opened are getting closed immediately and data not saved gets lost. It would be helpful if the app reminded you to save the data before rebooting the computer.

In the eventuality that you would like to determine whether you have a driver, network or malware issue that you want to repair via Windows troubleshooting options, then BootSafe Portable might come in handy.

What's new in BootSafe Portable 5.0:

  • Added options to enable/disable the F8 startup key.
  • Added repair of Windows 10 safe mode services, continuing the functionality added in v4.0 (in case Malware has damaged Safe Mode startup.)
  • Added detection and optional creation of a temporary admin user in Windows 10 when the primary user account is a Microsoft (online) account, since those passwords aren't likely to work in Safe Mode.
