Vista Reduced Functionality Mode nightmare…
…or what I learned over the weekend
This entire saga starts Thursday morning. I was able to get about three hours of work in when I felt the need lo reboot my computer.
When my computer came back up, I found myself in “reduced functionality mode.” I didn’t even know what reduced functionality mode was until this happened to me Since I have to expect that you don’t either, I’ll explain.
RFM (not to be confused with RTFM. which I should have done when I got this computer) is a state you can end up in for one of several reasons which I’ll cover next. You get a blank screen with a couple dialog boxes on them and no explorer interface. You also get one hour before you are logged out.
