The Windows Installer Service needs to be running in order to uninstall in Safe Mode. This solution will start the service if you receive Error 1084: The service cannot be started in safe mode error message after failing to start the service or uninstall a program.
To start the service please follow the following procedure:-
First of all go to the Registry. To go to the registry, please open "run" option and then type "regedit". Now go to the following location:-
HK_LOCAL_MACHIN - System - CurrentContrulSet - Control - SafeBoot - Minimal
Now right click the "minimal" option and then select key. Then rename it by "MSIServer". Now select the "MSIServer" option. Then select "default" option from right panal. Now double click the "default" option. And write the following value under the value data tab.
 VE/TREG_SZ/F/D
 
Now close the registry console. And go to the run and type "services.msc". Now start the "windows installer service" .
Now you can uninstall any program
All of the process are showing graphically -

First of all go to that location where "minimal"  option is situated, then right click the minimal option and select key.



Then rename it by "MSIServer". Then select that "MSIServer" option. Then select "Default" option from right panel. 


Now write that above value under the value data tab. And then close.


 Now go to the services and start windows installer services.
