    If you’re using Windows 10, then you might have noticed that the old ways of performing various actions no longer work. Right? Microsoft has assigned new steps to open multiple settings, modes, and inbuilt apps and utilities.

    One out of them is Safe Mode in Windows 10. We all know the importance of the safe mode.  This mode is a life saver when the system is facing serious issues.
