    When I go to start/shut down/ restart/ ms dos/
    I click on restart it will not work. I remember seeing a window come up, I think with the slip of my fingers while typing, with something about starting in safe mode. I panicked and rebooted. Does it mean that I can only restart in safe mode? If so , how do I get back to normal restart?

    If the menu comes up showing that it is going to restart in safe mode it should not be in DOS.

    Let it complete the safe mode and then restart Windows and it should be OK.

    A safe mode restart in normal after an improper restart or shutdown.
