  • Hello everyone We want to personally apologize to everyone for the downtime that we've experienced. We are working to get everything back up as quickly as possible. Due to the issues we've had, your password will need to be reset. Please click the button that says "Forgot Your Password" and change it. We are working to have things back to normal. Emails are fixed and should now send properly. Thank you all for your patience. Thanks, PCHF Management
While basically the same, there is a subtle difference to understand.

This URL gives more details, with how-to examples, but to summarise...

Safe Mode only loads the core essentials to allow Windows to start and automatically turns off everything else.
Clean Boot is when you manually disable processes and services that get started when Windows boots.

So while the outcome may seem the same, Safe Mode has many more things unavailable than what Clean Boot does.
