Is there a way to get rid of it.

Install Malware Bytes and run it, doing a full system scan. (see our previous article on how to use it).
It is also probable or potential that there are some malware infections that not only wedge safe mode, but also protect you from doing anything at all. A better is suggested that you must run a antivirus scan under safe mode if probable. Otherwise you will have to re-install windows back again.
