Moderated Sound settings do not appear to be turned on in Safe Mode in Windows 10
Dave Durber
Hello everyone:
The subject line says it all. Earlier today, I
checked the check box to have the system boot to safe mode, under the Boot Tab
in MsConfig, saved the setting change then, I
restarted the computer. . However, after waiting
for about 2 minutes, I determined that the sound settings for the default sound
card are not enabled for Windows 10 in Safe Mode. I was certain that the system
had restarted in Safe Mode, and on that assumption, I used another computer with
MsConfig to
follow the steps, to uncheck the check box for the original computer then, I
restarted the computer, which started in full Windows mode.
I have no idea how far back this problem
goes, I do remember, the System Sounds were turned
on for the last major update in 2019
because, I can remember booting Windows 10 into Safe Mode at that time and being
able to use both Narrator and NVDA
Do you now need to initialize a setting in standard
Windows in order for the System Sounds to be turned on for safe
mode?

I'd be willing to bet that the registry hack that
works in 7 will work in 10, for switching on audio in safe mode.
Here's the registry hacks:
Files 1&2 can be called anything you
want.reg
Save the below in notepad and give it a .reg
extension and save it and enter on it, Windows will ask you if you want to run
it.
After file 1, I'll put file 2 that will undo it if
it does not work.

Out of curiosity, is Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 the version in Windows 7 or Windows 10?
|
|
Sound has never been available, by default, in Safe Mode going back to the beginning of Windows. Registry Editor 5.00 is still current.
I wrote the following tutorial (and the downloadable registry editing scripts that take care of it all) several years ago for the then Windows 10 for Screen Reader Users Group (now Windows Access with Screen Readers Group as of the advent of Windows 11): Getting Sound in Safe Mode Under Windows 10 -- Brian - Virginia, USA - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy. ~ H.L. Mencken, AKA The Sage of Baltimore |
|
By the way, that's for Safe Mode with Networking. I never use Safe Mode without networking, so I didn't bother doing the registry tweaks for that state.

William,
Thank you very much. Now it's been around a year since Google imposed a new security requirement, and I've gone in to as many of my links and corrected them as I could remember, but apparently not this one. Getting Sound in Safe Mode Under Windows 10 That link should work. It's a ZIP file and you should save it to your Desktop (or copy it there from wherever it downloads) and unzip it there. After the unzipping, the ZIP file can be deleted. The instructions for using it after you've unzipped it are in the folder in a plain text file. If there are any additional issues, please let me know. -- Brian - Virginia, USA - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy. ~ H.L.

Under the Boot Tab in MsConfig for any of my

On the parts that say, ="Driver" and ="Service", does one have to specify the name of a driver and a service in order to make this work right? I'm confused!

Hi Annabelle,
No, you don't do anything with it but copy and
paste it into a text file and rename it, or if you want to do it the easy way, I
have both files in a zip file that I posted the link to, and you only enter on
the .REG file to install it.

Did you see the message I posted to Brian earlier

None of the systems which I am running Windows 10,
show an option called "Safe mode with Networking". Do I need to do something in
order for that option to be shown in the Boot Tab in MsConfig?

Dave,
In my windows 10, in the msconfig utility, I only
get the network option after I use space bar on safe mode, and after that, there
will be items to check with the space bar, like network.
