Maybe this will be of use to some.
Worth adding here, perhaps.
Users have read, or experienced, a faster boot time in Windows 10. In a way, this has been a bit of a cheat by Microsoft. What they have done is eliminated a window/facility during the boot process. This has, itself, caused the now added complaint regarding the tortuous way of being able to access safe mode.
If you are willing to sacrifice that faster boot, you can easily put this function back again.
Open a Command prompt, with Admin privileges.
Type, or paste in
bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy
On boot up, you will now see the "Other" options at the bottom of the boot screen.
If you are not happy, and want to return to fastboot, you can remove the option again with
bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy standard
