Can't find SPECIAL Auto-Restart Program...
« on: December 12, 2006, 10:08:23 PM »
Hey everyone; hope you're having a good day...

The problem is this:
I want to run all my scheduled maintenance tasks in SAFE MODE without having to manually reboot into safe mode and then back again into normal mode.  I can't find a program that actually helps you do this.

I find reboot programs but none that I see actually lets you choose between normal or safe mode.

Does anyone know of a freeware program out there that will help me accomplish this?

Thanks for your help & time in this matter!!

I don't know that you wil ever find such a program, free or not, based on how Windows works.

The boot.ini file has a /safeboot switch which might be helpful writing a script. I guess you would need another "safe mode" script to reset the boot.ini to boot normally.

Without an OS actually running when you make the determination to safe or normal boot, your options are somewhat limited.
