https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/error-code-0xc00000f-windows-wont-load/96034c92-e31b-436b-bbbe-60965858c894 I have gotten the error message referenced in the title when trying to start my computer.

I followed the directions in the above post, but when I try and run the command that starts with "bcdedit /export" I get a error message that says

"The store export operation has failed

The system cannot find the file specified"

Looking for more direction if possible please!

Answer 3

1. Can you boot the system from Disk 1? It has an EFI partition.
2. If Disk 0 contains your Windows installation, please create an EFI partition on that disk.

Run:

diskpart
select volume C
shrink desired=200
create partition efi size=200
select disk 0
list part
list vol
exit

Post the output. There are additional commands to be run.

Answer 4

Ramesh,

thank you for your response.

1. I believe that the flash drive is recognized in bios, when i go to Bios it gives me the option to boot from the flash drive, when I did not have that option previously. the Bios seems to correctly understand the make and model of the flash drive (sandisk cruzer). I'm not 100% certain that that answers your question, but I hope it helps you

Disk 1	Online	238 GB	6144 KB		*
Disk 2	Online	29 GB	0B

(as a note, If im understanding this correctly, there should be a lot more free space on both of the listed drives. I had at least 10 gigs free on my main drive last time i turned the computer on, and there was almost nothing on my 256G SSD)

select disk 0

Disk 0 is now the selected disk
