My computer doesn't boot, so no any methods including magic clicking on running computer are not applicable.

So, I have turned off computer on my desk.

How to boot it into safe mode?

UPDATE

I found experimentally, that to enter safe mode, one should have failed boot for TWO subsequent times. After that Windows goes to diagnostic screen, where, rather deep, there is an icon to initiate Safe Mode.

Would accept this as an answer.

To boot into safe mode without specifying in the Boot tab of the System Configuration window (msconfig) before restarting, you simply turn on the machine while holding the F8 key.

If your computer does not boot, I do not know how you are going to get into safe mode, though.

Can you get to a CMD Prompt? If so run following command: BCDEDIT /SET {DEFAULT} BOOTMENUPOLICY LEGACY

This will allow f8 to make use of legacy menus that will include booting to Safe Mode. After all is complete, you can use the following command (or leave it): BCDEDIT /SET {DEFAULT} BOOTMENUPOLICY STANDARD
