Error code "0xc000000e" when booting on Win11

Question

Hey,

I recently installed Win11 on the D: partition of my computer (because I wanted to multi-boot with Win10) with an ISO bootable key. When I click on "Windows 11" button on the "Choose an option" menu, it spends a lot of time saying "Getting ready" Then it shows me "Recovery Error code : 0xc000000e This file is missing or has errors in it : "/Windows/system32/winload.efi"" None of the "UEFI" or "start-up settings" menu works. How can I clean reinstall Win 11? Otherwise, how can I fix it directely? I can still boot on Win 10 (that's what I am typing from rn).

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your post in Microsoft Community.

I understand that you have encountered a problem with dual-system Windows 11 boot errors.

This error code indicates that your startup configuration is corrupted.

If you want to clean out the Windows installation on the D drive, you can do two things.

1- Clean up the files.

If Windows 10 and Windows 11 are using two different hard disks, and there are no files in the hard disk where Windows 11 is located, then you can right-click "This PC" - click Manage - Disk Management - Delete the EFI partition of the disk where Windows 11 is located and the recovery partition as well as the base partition - then recreate the new partition.

If the hard disk is the same, or important files are stored in the same disk, you can open the D driver in the file explorer and delete the Windows files.

2- Remove the boot entry

Press Win+R, enter and run msconfig.

In the "Startup" tab, delete the Windows 11 boot selection.

Then install Windows 11 again if needed.

Please feel free to let me know how it goes.

At the moment it seems that UEFI information is saved in another disk, maybe you can try to create a UEFI partition manually.

First press Win+X, select and open Disk Manager.

Right-click and select the disk where the UEFI partition needs to be created, select "Shrink Volume", and create a partition of about 100MB.

Run Command Prompt as administrator. Enter the following command and run:

diskpart 

list disk 

Find the disk you need to use in the displayed disk list, and use the following command to select (where "0" needs to be replaced with the disk you need to use:

select disk 0 

Then use the following command to create an efi partition:

create partition efi size = 100 

At this point the EFI partition will be created successfully, I recommend reinstalling using USB media to let Windows write the information itself.

But you can also try to use the command to copy the boot information from another disk to this partition. The operation is as follows:

list partition 

Find the EFI partition you just created here.

select partition 0 

Check the created EFI partition, the "0" needs to be replaced with the correct number.

assign letter = G 

Here, assign a drive letter to the EFI partition, "G" needs to be replaced with a suitable and non-repeating drive letter.

Rerun the Command Prompt as an administrator and enter and run the following command:

bcdboot c:/Windows /s G: 

This will copy the boot information to the "G" partition just created.

Note: The green font above is the explanation or annotation of the command, and only the black font is the executable command.

Then reboot to see if it boots normally.

Answer 4

1. Please post images or share links of disk management.

Disk management by default compress rows and columns so that characters are cut off.

a) widen these rows: disk 0, disk 1, disk 2, etc. > make sure that no characters are cut off

b) widen these columns: Status and Volume > make sure that no characters are cut off

2. Run:

(bat files by default prompt AV software and require manual overrides)
