Windows 10: WinLoad.efi missing or contains errors, even after recovery attempts.

Hello. I have a problem.Earlier today, my Windows 11 computer ran into an error while I was asleep at my keyboard I have sleeping troubles, and rebooted without giving me the chance to see what the error was. When I woke up, I found myself looking at a screen saying that \Windows\System32\winload.efi was missing or contained errors. I have spent the past two hours following multiple guides on the Internet, including other forum posts on this very website, to no avail.I have tried the following solutions:1. sfc /scannow from the recovery environment, using the existing Windows 11 installation

Windows 11 winload efi missing, F8 button not working

Hello,

My HP is not starting up. I’ve received the ‘winload efi is missing or corrupt’. All the troubleshoot steps require me to go into startup settings but in order for me to do that, I have to press F8 however when I do press it my screen flashes and it doesn’t take me there (this is on the blue ‘recovery’ screen with the error message). Can anyone help me please. I need to get back into my laptop. I can’t afford to reinstall the OS. Too much important files and data that I didn’t back up unfortunately ��.

PS. My photos are failing to load so I could show the screens that I have been stuck on

The blue error screen:

Recovery

Your PC/Device needs to be repaired

The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or

contains errors.

File: \windows\system32\winload.efi

Error code: Oxc0000225

You'll need to use recovery tools. If you don't have any installation media like a disc or USB device), contact your PC administrator or PC/Device manufacturer.

Press Enter to try again

Press F1 to enter Recovery Environment

Press F8 for Startup Settings

Press Esc for UEFI Firmware Settings
