Start your computer in safe mode
Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs don't run in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed. For more information, see What is safe mode?
Safe mode is useful for troubleshooting problems with programs and drivers that might not start correctly or that might prevent Windows
from starting correctly. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start
in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device
drivers as possible causes. If a recently installed program, device, or
driver prevents Windows from running
correctly, you can start your computer in safe mode and then remove the
program that's causing the problem. For more information about
troubleshooting problems in safe mode, see Diagnostic tools to use in safe mode.
