How to Uninstall a Program in the Safe Mode

When uninstalling a program, sometimes you can not completely uninstall it even though you have used a professional uninstall tool. And 9 out of 10 times, it is because that you haven't shut down this program completely. And sometimes for some reason, you have no way to successfully shut down this program unless you do it in the safe mode.
We all know that Safe Mode, shortened as SM, offers the cleanest and safest version of your system by running under minimum loading of programs. And here I will show you how to enter the safe mode and then you can uninstall a program completely.
If you are a Windows XP or Windows Vista user:
Step 1 When you switch on the computer and see a black screen. Press F8 key at once.
Step 2 Select the safe mode option by using the arrow keys, and then press ENTER.
If you are a Windows 95, 98 or Me user:
Same instructions like Windows XP users above.
If you are a Windows 2000 user:
When you switch on your computer and see the black-and-white Starting Windows bar at the bottom of the screen, press F8 key at once. A menu with several options will appear, and then choose the Safe Mode Option.
Note that if your computer has already switched on and skipped to the Windows page, you should shut down the computer first, and then turn off the power. Wait 30 seconds and then switch on your computer.
Then you can try to uninstall a tough program with an uninstall tool in the Safe Mode.
Among so many uninstall tools, the Best Uninstall Tool is actually the best one that can help you fully uninstall a program you don't want with great success and make sure all the now-defunct Registry entries and related files are eliminated automatically with a few clicks.
