Windows 10: 0xc000000e Boot error. Normal fixes don't work

This issue occurred after I installed a new SSD and cloned my old start drive too it. I tried to expand the drive to utilize the full capacity of the SSD by using AOMEI Partition assistant and merging the new cloned volume and the large unassigned partition. I needed to restart it and rebooted into PreOS mode. Doing this I get the 0xc000000e boot error.


I restart the computer from a USB, then enter the command prompt.

bootrec /rebuildbcd finds an installation on the E: drive, and asks if I want to add the installation to the boot list. Answering Y yeilds:

"The system cannot find the path specified"


bootrec /FixMbt

completes succefully

bootrec /FixBoot yeilds "Access is denied"

To fix this I follow a guide that leads to me changing the letter of the volume that Windows is installed on E: to "V:". It then asks me to input format V: /FS:FAT32 This first asks me of the name of the drive, which I give it. Then it warns me that formatting will clear everything. At this point I chicken out because none of the guides I was reading mentioned this. The next step was to enter: bcdboot C:\windows /s V: /f UEFI which I did without formatting, this didn't work for any letter I placed before "\windows".


Worth noting is that in diskpart I didn't find any volume that clearly stated that it was an EFI partition. I also found some unlabeled partitions that I weren't sure of what they were, including one Hidden FAT32 100MB partition.

Boot Error Code 0xc000000e with a slight difference

I been having this problem for a while but it hasn't been much of a bother till recently. So I have been getting a boot error code 0xc000000e for quiet some time. However though, there is something that I find it weird about the code. So basically when I
first installed Windows for the first time, everything was working fine. When I tried to reset the computer in case there was any problems, it gave me the error code. I tried different methods on fixing it but I was only able to fix the problem temporary.
Whenever I would boot up the menu with the F11 key and click on the hard drive that has Windows on it, it boots up normally. Even when I reset after this method, the computer would boot up normally so I thought everything is fine. But when I would reset the
next time, it would still give me an error code 0xc000000e.

In short, the cycle would be. First boot good, 2nd boot no good so F11 to boot up normally, 3rd boot good, 4th boot no good so F11 to boot up normally. Cycle continues. I never found an actual solution to this and I am hoping I can find any answers here.

I am running on Windows 10 at the moment and the computer is about 4 years old. So this problem has been persistent for about 4 years and it still works normally surprisingly. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem is greatly appreciated!!

 

error code 0xc000000e


The boot error 0xc000000e on Windows seems quite irritating as the user finds difficult to load the operating system normally. It mainly occurs due to uncertain shutdown or restart of the computer which may be because of power failure or sudden system crash thereby making the boot configuration data corrupt. I will explain you how to repair the boot configuration data.
1) Insert the Windows installation bootable disk and open the command prompt through it.

2) Execute the following commands one by one
bootrec/fixmbr
bootrec/fixboot
bootrec/rebuildbcd


3) Wait for the process to be completed and then Restart your PC.

Error 0xc000000e and the computer does not boot

Jessen,

Thank you for suggestions.

F8 can not boot to Safe Mode.

Command lines >bootrec/fixmbr... have been tried

Win 10 USB and CD are of no help.

0xc000000e error still remains.
