Toshiba laptops that run the Windows operating system have a special boot mode called "Safe Mode," just like all other computers that run Windows. Safe Mode starts your Toshiba laptop without any extra drivers or programs, opting to instead start with the bare minimum amount of drivers that the operating system requires to operate. This makes Safe Mode ideal for troubleshooting and virus removal purposes.
