Disable rescue mode when recovery work is complete and you are ready to start the installed operating system. Returning to normal boot does not by itself resolve the original fault; the guest must still pass its normal startup checks.

What you need before you begin
Complete data copies and review the changes made in rescue mode. Keep the recovered backup outside the VPS. Ensure no shell is still working inside a mounted guest filesystem or chroot environment before changing the boot mode.
01 Leave Virtualizor rescue mode and restore normal boot
- Exit any chroot session and stop recovery processes using the guest disk. Cleanly unmount filesystems that you mounted manually, following their dependency order.
- Open the correct VPS in Virtualizor and return to Rescue Mode.
- Select Disable Rescue Mode and wait for completion. Follow the panel power-operation instructions rather than issuing concurrent Start or Restart commands.
- Refresh the management page after the task completes. Open the console and check that the server boots from the normal system disk.
- Sign in using the normal guest account. The temporary rescue password may not be the installed operating-system password.
- Check storage mounts, network configuration and essential services before reopening the application to users.
How do I confirm the VPS returned to normal boot?
Confirm the rescue state is cleared, the expected operating system is running and the original workload passes a real functional test. Check logs for filesystem recovery or failed service startup, especially after a forced shutdown or disk repair.
Troubleshoot unexpected results
If the server returns to the same boot failure, capture the console message and assess the repair before cycling modes repeatedly. If it still boots a recovery image, review mounted ISOs and boot order with support. Keep the verified backup until normal operation and the next backup cycle are confirmed.
