    After sysprep and bitlocker getting a "winload.efi" error


    I am applying a new image, to the primary drive of a laptop, using WinPE. everything is working well until I run sysprep for the OOBE as we want user to receive the computer and run thought the set up. During testing, we run though the windows set up, using a test account to login to the machine. We then run bitlocker. On the restart from encrypting the computer it will not boot up winload.efi error. To me it seems like the computer encrypts the c drive then can’t read the encrypted drive. there is more....
    This does not happen if skip sysprep and we go straight to bitlocker encryption. I have checked online with no help. the only help is how to fix the issue of the "winload.efi" error and I would like to not run into the issue at all.
    any suggestion other the never use sysprep hahaha
    note:
    dell precision 3500 2020
    Windows 10 2004
    no error logs as the drive is encrypted.

    Thank you

    :)

    Which tool to recover the EFI partition? Booted into Rescue Disk

    That's not what they suggest here:

    FIX: Steps to Fix Winload.EFI Error - Appuals.com

    Winload.EFI Error, is pretty much self explanatory by it’s name is an error that prevents windows from loading. This is usually caused by corrupt boot records or incorrect boot configuration. Depending on your Operating System, the error message may vary but the keyword winload.efi will be same. On a Windows 8/8.1/10 system, the error usually pops-up in the following form.
