I started by creating a VHDX using Hyper-V in an external drive which when I added the VHDX to bcd it boots fine from the external drive but when I wanted to copy the VHDX on my SSD when I attempted to boot I keep getting the message

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: 0xc000000e

also, note that the VHDX file boot up fine in the Hyper-V

E: is an external drive and D: it's my SSD which is an internal drive

Here is my boot config for the one in the external drive
