Introduction


If you need to repair Windows 10, reset the operating system, restore from a backup file, or boot into safe mode, you must access the Advanced Boot Options menu.

Windows 8 and 10 bundle their startup options into a single screen named the "Advanced Options" menu. This menu provides access to repair tools and options for modifying Windows start-up behaviour, such as enabling debugging, booting into safe mode, and launching in a recovery environment.

From there, you can access Windows diagnostic and repair tools such as Start-up Repair, System Recovery, Command Prompt, Reset this PC, and more.

Advanced Boot Options allows you to do the following:

• Access UEFI firmware from PC
• Choose the default operating system to boot to PC if multiple operating systems are installed
• Start recovery (aka: Windows RE or WinRE), troubleshooting, and diagnostic tools.
• Start from a disc (e.g. USB or DVD) or a device (UEFI only)
Restore Windows from a system image

Methods to launch the advanced boot options mode

Usually the Advanced Boot Options menu should appear automatically after two consecutive boot errors. However, if you have to open it manually, there are several different ways to do it.

Method 1: Shift + Restart

1. Click the power button icon in the lower right corner.
2. Hold down the Shift key and click Restart.

3. Click Troubleshoot on the screen that appears to display the "Advanced Options" menu.

Note: This method does not seem to work with the on-screen keyboard. You must have a physical keyboard connected to your computer or device to open the Advanced Boot Options menu this way.
