How to Exit Safe Mode

Do not select "Safe boot" in the middle left part of the window. If this box is not checked, you have disabled Safe Boot.

Click Apply , then select OK . Both options are below the window. This is to ensure that the computer does not start in Safe Mode by default.

Turn off the computer. Click Start , click Power , then select Shut down to turn off the computer.

Turn off the computer for a few minutes. This way, the computer will have time to completely shut down and refresh the data in the cache.

Turn off the computer by pressing the computer's "Power" button. After the computer completes the backup process, Safe Mode is turned off.

If your computer is still in Safe Mode, you need to bring it to a technical center to have it fixed.

On Mac

Restart your Mac. Open the Apple menu, click Restart. and Restart again when asked. In most cases, this is enough to exit Safe Mode on your computer.

After restarting, if the computer is still in Safe Mode, proceed to the next step.

Make sure ⇧ Shiftyour Mac's keys aren't stuck. Holding down the key ⇧ Shiftwhile restarting your Mac will enable Safe Mode when the machine restarts. If this key is stuck, you cannot restart your Mac without turning on Safe Mode.

If a key ⇧ Shiftis stuck, remove it and restart your Mac. If the device is still in Safe Mode, continue with the next step.

Turn off your Mac. Open the Apple menu, click Shut Down. and Shut Down again when prompted.

Open your Mac. Press your Mac's "Power" button on the keyboard (laptop) or on the screen (iMac).

Press and hold ⌥ Option+ ⌘ Command+ P+R immediately. Do this immediately after you press your Mac's "Power" button.

Hold down the keys until your Mac makes the second startup sound. This operation takes about 20 seconds. Your Mac will start up during this time.

If your Mac doesn't make the startup sound, just wait for the Apple logo to light up a second time.

Wait for your Mac to finish restarting. The entire process will reset your Mac's temporary system settings. Your device returns to normal mode after your Mac restarts.

If your Mac still hasn't returned to normal mode, you should bring it to a technical center to have it checked.

On iPhone

Determine if your iPhone is jailbroken or not. Unjailbroken iPhones don't come with Safe Mode built-in, meaning you'll have an unrelated experience when your device crashes.

Press and hold the "Volume Down" and "Power" buttons. This forces the iPhone to restart in normal mode. You need to hold these two buttons for a few seconds.

Release your hand when the phone is turned off. You stop pressing the buttons when the screen becomes black.

Wait for the phone to reboot. You will see the Apple logo display for a few seconds to a few minutes. After restarting, the iPhone will return to normal mode.

Try deleting problematic apps or settings. If your iPhone won't restart normally and is jailbroken, you probably recently installed something that's causing the phone to crash. Delete applications, software, and editing settings to return your phone to normal operation.

This step applies to non-jailbroken iPhones.

Restore iPhone. The best way to get your phone back to normal mode is to restore backup. If your iPhone is jailbroken, this will remove the jailbreak.

If your phone is not jailbroken, restoring a backup from an older version of the operating system will fix the problem.

On Android

Use bulletin boards. Swipe the Android screen down from the top to open the notification panel, then select SAFE MODE or an option with a similar name. This will help your Android device exit Safe Mode, but will reboot the device.

Not all Android devices have this option. If you do not see the SAFE MODE option in the notification panel, proceed to the next step.

Restart your Android device. Press and hold the "Power" button, then press Restart or Reboot in the window that appears. This operation always exits the Android device's Safe Mode.

After restarting, if your Android device is still in Safe Mode, proceed to the next step.

Turn off the computer for a while. To do this, turn off your device and wait a few minutes before turning it back on:

Press and hold the "Power" button

Select Shut down

Turn off your phone for a few minutes.

Open the phone and hold down the "Volume down" button. Press and hold the "Power" button and the "Volume down" button to turn the phone back on after it has been turned off for a while.

Clear Android cache. This will delete all temporary files associated with starting your Android device, along with other applications on your phone or tablet.

Try deleting recent apps. If you just installed an app, this could be the reason why your Android device is still in Safe Mode. Delete the applications you just installed, then restart the device.

Reset Android device . If none of these methods work, you need to reset the device to return to the original settings. This operation deletes the current data on your Android device, so you need to make sure to back up your device before resetting it.

If this still does not turn off Safe Mode, you need to bring your Android device to a technical center for inspection.
