Greetings, I was operating on Windows 11 without any issues, and last night I powered down my computer. Today, when I attempted to start it, I encountered this issue. When I tried to install a new Windows 11 via USB, I experienced the same problem upon accessing the flash drive. I then attempted to install Windows 10, and the system booted up without any issues (I believe this is because it does not require UEFI). After that, I tried downloading another Windows 11 onto my USB, but I faced the same issue. I suspect this problem is linked to something that requires UEFI, like Windows 11, so if anyone has a solution, please assist me. My system: Ryzen 5 2600, Asus TUF B450M Pro S, 16 GB RAM, Cooler Master 600W, Photo of the issue.

It seems that you tried to post a link. If so, please repost the link using the Insert link icon. = = = = Where did you acquire that 'new Windows 11 by USB' flash drive? And the same inquiry regarding Windows 10. What installation methods did you follow?

IMG_4298.HEIC drive.google.com This is the link that cannot be added using the insert icon. I obtained Windows 10 and 11 from the Microsoft website.

That error indicates that winload.efi is damaged. Even though that screen suggests your flash drive is malfunctioning, it appears that your internal drive has a corrupted winload.efi (or a corrupted BCD boot entry). winload.efi is identical for both Windows 10 and 11; since you have already installed Windows 10, which replaced your corrupted boot files, installing Windows 11 should not be problematic. Next time, you can simply boot from the flash drive installation media into the command line and type: mountvol O: /S chkdsk O: bootrec /fixboot.

Now, when I disable secure boot, the issue is resolved, but I cannot reinstall Windows 11 because it requires secure boot. What is the issue here?

Windows 11 does not require secure boot; however, in your BIOS, you may need to reset the platform keys.
