Windows 10 and remote "safe mode with networking" reboot via Teamviewer / Splashtop


Recommended Posts

I use both Teamviewer (v10) and Splashtop (v3) for remote support to my customer base.

Today I needed to remote reboot into "safe mode with networking" a Windows 10 machine. TV "should" do this automagically and with Splashtop I use a small script to try to do it. The remote machine did indeed boot into safe mode but not safe mode with networking. I then experimented with a local Windows 10 machine and noticed the same problem.

Is there a workaround for this problem? Has anyone else seen this problem?

The reboot script I am using via Splashtop is:

@echo off
bcdedit /set safeboot network
shutdown -r -f -t 0
 

The issue is with both Teamviewer and Splashtop.

The machines reboot into safe mode but WITHOUT networking.

v11 Teamviewer is a possibility but I'll be then forced to upgrade my business licence to and don't really want to do that at the moment.

Just go into msconfig and set it to reboot to safe mode with networking there if needs be.

I've tried that. The script I have should do that for me but it doesn't.

Do the machines require a login ?  I wonder if that is preventing (somehow) the reboot into Safe Mode w/ Networking

I know Teamviewer has the Reboot into Safe Mode option, but am not aware of a Safe Mode w/ networking (unless it is understood as the networking part would have to be present in order to reconnect)

Yes, the two machines both require a login.

Teamviewer "Reboot to safe mode" is safe mode with networking.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.2.3 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.2.3 changelog: All GPUs: Fixed hardware rescan issue when cleaning all GPUs without restarting or shutting down UI: Added Guru3D mention in the About section. General: Various fixes and enhancements.

    • That would be nice, if excel could refresh pivot tables without bugs. Frequently you refresh a pivot and all parameters get lost. Now this will happen automatically. Bravo MS!
    • If one could ever put all the crap of the world in one box, that would be Microsoft.
