Yesterday when i tried to boot in safe mode with msconfig my computer but it didn't want to boot in safe mode .
It loads to windows logo but after that the screen goes black (when trying to boot in safe mode) but the big problem is that i can't boot in normal mode because computer starts in safe mode automatically

You can boot to installation media or a Recovery Drive to access a command prompt to run the following command, which will instruct the boot loader to provide you with the Startup Settings, press Enter to boot normally:

BCDEdit /Set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu yes

This is covered by Microsoft Support here.

You could also potentially use the following to remove the instructions to boot safe mode:

BCDEdit /Enum
BCDEdit /DeleteValue {current} safeboot

Where {current} is the ID of the operating system entry provided by BCDEdit /Enum.

The ID is actually a GUID, e.g. {fa926493-6f1c-4193-a414-58f0b2456d1e}. Some well-known and important GUIDS are given more recognizable names by BCDEdit, such as {bootmgr} or {default} or {current}.

As you seem to have figured out, make sure the ID matches the path you would expect to boot, i.e. \Windows\System32\.
