What this means when msft. Says can not read while in the "play safe mode?
The title says it all. Can you answer the question?
Hello
Looks like you have something installed on your computer called Foxit. It is a program to read the .pdf files running on this "safe reading mode" to protect themselves against suspicious websites.
Problem is, I guess it can work as well, sometimes. If you do a search on your computer for Foxit, you should be able to open certain preferences to turn off.
Here is a link I found on the foxit support site which will help hopefully.

* Original title: startup
How can I find out what programs I should have started and what are the programs I can start myself to my computer to run correctly when starting?
Hello
I understand you want to learn about programs, you should start your Windows startup. I will certainly help you to question.
When you start Windows by using a normal startup startup, several applications and services automatically, and then run in the background. These programs include the base system, antivirus software, utility applications processes system and other software that was previously installed. These applications and services may cause interference when you install or run a program.
The system configuration is a tool that can help identify problems that might prevent Windows from starting correctly. You can start Windows with common services and startup programs turned off and then reactivate them, one at a time.
I suggest you to refer to the links below and check if this is useful:
Using the Configuration System (msconfig)
Perform a clean boot to determine if background programs interfere with your game or program
Hope this information helps.
Please get back to us with an update on the issue, we will be happy to help you.

I don't have a password reset disk and that you do not have access to the windows Start button.
There is another account that is not shown as an option when starting in safe mode? It should not be. Are you talking about the master admin account? Is it permits?
FWIW, if the user that is used in safe mode is an administrator, it can be used to change user to other users accounts. If this isn't the case, please specify the problem.
