What is Safe mode?
'''Safe mode''' is a mode of startup in [[computer]]s that allows the user to detect and fix [[error]]s. Many things do not run on safe mode. The reason is to see whether any of the recently added or updated [[device driver]]s were causing the problem. When safe mode is used, a computer will only start with the minimum number of [[system file|system files]] needed for it to work properly. This is to make it easier to find a problem that may be causing a computer to work incorrectly. The [[screen resolution]] is also smaller and there is no sound or [[internet]] connection in safe mode. This is because these features are not necessary for the computer to work properly. {{tech-stub}} [[Category:Computer terminology]]
