Exit safe mode

Hello . I have a problem with exiting Safe Mode and the latest Release Preview Channel installed on my Asus Tuf A 17 laptop. Yesterday, I was doing a Driver cleanup to reinstall AMD CPU DRIVERS and it prompted me to reboot into Safe Mode.

I cannot discover any method in which to revert back into regular operating mode on the 23H2 RP Channel presently installed on my laptop.

Could anyone please advise me regarding this issue?? I can't get into Microsoft Store for reverting out of safe mode and the links shown on YouTube are confusing and often mismatch my info displayed with what is in example shown upon their own systems.

Short of reinstalling The RP Channel, I'm open for suggestions. Thank you for any cooperation and advice. Wishing everyone a pleasant day.

    Hello David,

    To exit Safe Mode on your Windows 11 device, you can try the following steps:

    1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
    2. Type "msconfig" and press Enter.
    3. In the System Configuration window, click on the Boot tab.
    4. Under the Boot options section, uncheck the "Safe boot" option.
    5. Click on Apply and then OK.
    6. Restart your computer.

    This should boot your computer into normal mode.

    Regards,

    I am having a similar issue, but mine came in safe mode. It gives me an error when ai try to remove safe mode, and the method displayed here results in a strange message. It says something about needing a code or password. Is this normal?

    When you say cpu drivers, do you mean chipset drivers? If so those are drivers you only update, not uninstall.

    Try to get the chipset drivers form the laptops' support site & reinstall them.
