Enable and Disable Driver Verifier in Windows 10  

was able to get safe mode running by bringing up an admin console window and entering
bcdedit /set {default} safeboot minimal

turned off verifier
turned off safe mode with
bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot

I had the same problem you did and you saved me from having to reinstall windows. Thanks. I originally was trying to use verifier to clean up some bad drivers and it totally looped my boot on a verifier violation.

You saved the day. :)

I occasionally have a blue screen with IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error, so I want to know if I should check "Force IRQL checking" in the second step of part two, and also if I should check any other options specific for this type of error?

My experience after being stuck in a boot loop:

Disable Driver Verifier via Command Prompt: did NOT work
Disable Driver Verifier via System restore: did work

Clear, accurate, thorough and up-to-date tutorial - many thanks

Thank you- I had tried all the suggestions through windows recovery and nothing worked. This did.

So to be more specific, open CMD as Admin,
bcdedit /set {default} safeboot minimal
Reboot, open CMD as Admin again,
verifier /bootmode resetonbootfail
bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
Reboot.
