Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I switched to safe mode to fix an issue with malware/virus (OverldBuddies). Now I cannot get back to a normal restart. My laptop keeps restarting into safe mode. HELP!

@LoneTrekker, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

To exit Safe Mode, open the System Configuration tool by opening the Run command (keyboard shortcut: Windows key + R) and typing msconfig then Ok. 2. Tap or click the Boot tab, uncheck the Safe boot box, hit Apply, and then O.

 

Disable automatic restart when Windows 10 or Windows 8 starts normally

  1. In Windows, search for and open View advanced system settings.

  2. In the Advanced tab, under Startup and Recovery, click Settings.

    Startup and Recovery Settings in the System Properties window

  3. Under System Failure, remove the check mark next to Automatically restart, then click OK.

    Automatically restart option unselected

  4. Restart the computer to apply the change.

Keep me posted for further assistance.
