How to uninstall applications from safemode


     When programs or drivers get corrupted  and make windows unstable or unable to boot, we try uninstalling the software from safemode but safe mode won’t allow you to uninstall applications like msi based installers.
  • Go to safemode and log into your user account
  • Open Regedit (start > run > regedit)
  • Navigate to the key 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Minimal


  • Right click on the Minimal key in the left pane, choose New > Key then name it MSISERVER
  •  In the right pane, double click on the default, and give it the value Service


Close Regedit and
  • Start the service using Command Prompt (CMD) NET START MSISERVER


And try uninstalling the software applications.
Alternate method: Enabling MSISERVER from command prompt:
Copy and paste strings in the command prompt

REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Minimal\MSIServer /VE /t REG_SZ /f /d Service
NET START MSISERVER
