    0xc0000428 haunting me


    I have tried everything I can think of at this point and am just hitting a wall. Sometimes I can boot past it but usually I can't even get into windows. Error 0xc0000428. I have even changed my SSD and installed windows fresh on an untouched drive and this still happens immediately after the first restart. I have tried startup recovery and that just fails. What can I even do at this point.

    :)
