Windows 0xc0000225 error
I have an Acer laptop with dual-boot (Windows 10 and Debian). Recently, I shrunk the Debian partition and shifted the beginning of the Windows partition (where boot files, partition table, etc are located) in order to expand it. Consequently I now get the following error.
On Legacy as boot mode, grub is loaded and I can choose between Debian and Windows. Choosing Windows gives the error above.
I tried many things. I have a Windows ISO on USB stick which I can use (on UEFI boot mode) to get to the repair tools (mostly command line). From there, I tried bootrec /fixboot, bootrec /fixmbr, bootrec /rebuildbcd and playing with diskpart. These are the results:
bootrec /fixboot, bootrec /fixmbr and bootrec /rebuildbcd
list disk and list volumes (diskpart)
list partition (diskpart)
I searched through many links, but none seems to work. I know I could format the entire partition and install Windows again, but I don’t want to lose the files that are on C volume (I can see them from the command line, so they are still there). How can I fix this?

I assume usingbootrec /fixmbrwould write Microsoft boot code to the MBR. Would not this result in overwriting the GRUB boot code?
