======   Windows now Booting after being Cloned to new HDD / SSD (0xc000000e )  ======

I usually clone a disk using either CloneZilla or a Disk Bay, but sometimes I have to clone an existing Drive to a Small Drive (usually going from HDD to SSD).

For that, there is a lot of tools, though I usually use [[https://www.aomeitech.com/aomei-backupper.html|AOMEI Backupper]]. Again, sometimes, Windows will not boot from the new drive and will output the Error Code: 0xc000000e.

To fix that, you can do as following:

  * Boot your PC with an Windows Installation Disk - ProTip, use "[[engineering:computer_science:software:awesome_software:awesome_software_desktop|Ventoy]]"
  * Choose Language / Keyboard and click Next
  * Choose "Repair your computer"
  * Choose "Troubleshoot" > "Advanced Options" > "Command Prompt"
  * Type "diskpart"
  * Type "select disk 0" to select the HDD/SDD - you can find which disk to be used, using the output from "list disk"
  * Type "list volume" - note / memorize the partition called "SYSTEM" / your EFI partition
  * Type "select volume 1"
  * Assign a letter to the volume - eg: "assign letter v" - from now on I will assume "v" is the volume letter
  * Type "exit"
  * Type "v:"
  * Type "bootrec /rebuildbcd"
  * You should get a prompt saying something along the lines of:
<code>
Successfully scanned Windows installations. Total identified Windows installations: 1 [1] D:\Windows Add installation to boot list? Yes/No/All:

</code>
  * Type "Y"
  * Reboot

The error should be fixed now.
