Windows safe mode is a troubleshooting mode of Windows Operating system, which starts operating system with at most necessary resources. It will load basic files and device drivers that are necessary to run windows 8.
In safe mode of windows, all advanced graphics functionality, additional unimportant process & services are not loaded. That’s the reason why we use safe mode for trouble shoot windows bug. So any process or application, preventing
windows to load normally will remain disabled, and we can debug this problem. When windows load in safe mode, graphics functionality is kept at minimum. That’s why Safe mode is quite ugly, large icons, no aero effect & so on. One must keep it in mind that
whenever Windows loads in safe mode by default it will dump you in Administrator Account . So, be careful, whatever will you goanna want to perform, will be reflected on overall windows.

Subject: icons dissappeared from SS personal pages and index

I use different color tree icons to denote descendants of various family branches and another icon to indicate their sex. These icons appear on the SS personal pages and index. There is a key explaining the icons on the SS Title [home] page.
All was working well and looking good until I updated TMG with new people and refreshed the flags. When I rebuilt Second Site, none of the icons appear on Index or Personal pages, but the ones are still visible on the Home page.
When looking in SS config under Data > Icons, it appears that all the icon flag sentences are still there and correct.
What can I do about correcting this problem? or find what is causing it?
