    I have followed the posts online that inform on how to fix the 0xc0000409 error code and I now have the 0xc0000005 once again.

      Hello Kiddabob, I have been looking for an answer about that reading in some forums but without success. Some people in those forums say that those problems are related to Windows 11 beta itself. Maybe the specs of your PC meet the requirements, but unfortunately this could be normal while Microsoft finds a solution. Anyway, I'll keep looking and please let me know how it goes.

      I just shared this post on Twitter. Maybe someone from #WindowsInsider community could helps us. Maybe that way the word will spread more:

      Kiddabob  I'm so sorry, Those kind of errors are new for me. For my part, I will be looking for a solution. Have you tried to contact to Microsoft (or Windows) service desk from Win 10? Maybe, they could help you to install Win 11
