Q: Windows 10 Bootcamp Corrupted If 3rd Partition Is Made

Pretty much the title. I have found that whenever you make a third partition, whether you install an operating system or not, my Windows 10 is always corrupted in some way. It says that Windows 10 needs repairing and gives me the error code 0xc000000e. It says

"Your PC needs to be repaired.

An unexpected error has occured.


0xc000000e


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


Enter to try again.

F8 for Startup Settings"

Whenever you try different startup settings like safe mode it simply restarts the "Starting self repair" process and takes you back to the same screen. Essentially you are trapped in the "Your PC needs to be repaired." screen. Does anyone have a fix for this?

    You can not add partitions once a Boot Camp partition is created. http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

    If you need additional partitions, your Mac must meet certain conditions.

     

    1. You cannot do this on 2012 or older models, without issues, because these Macs are preUEFI.

    2. Partitioning must be done manually, and before Windows is installed on supported machines.

    3. Windows 8/10 support EFI boot much better than W7, and must be used to install Windows.

    4. Do not alter the partitioning scheme after Windows is installed, otherwise you need to repair the Windows BCD, as the error message you see states.
