[MLUG - DISCUSSION] Windows annoyance: unsafe mode

[Mike Miller <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I couldn't uninstall OpenSSH in Win2000 without starting in "safe mode,"
so I started in safe mode, deleted files and registry items, rebooted and
OpenSSH was gone.  (Big windows annoyance: rebooting!  Can't do a thing
without a restart.  I'm glad unix doesn't work that way.  Back to "safe
mode"....)  Anyway, starting in safe mode caused windows to rearrange my
desktop icons.  It also caused programs I launched to come up in smaller
windows than usual.  Why doesn't "safe mode" not automatically store
earlier settings unless you explicitly request to change them?  Yet
another Windows annoyance!  ;-)
