    bootmgr is missing when trying to boot from a SATA HDD


    So hello guys, I had this other computer that had a SATA HDD with windows 10 on it. Then I bought a computer with an nvme m.2 and installed windows on that, now I can't boot into my previous windows 10 that is on the SATA HDD. At first i had the problem "insert boot media disk", fixed that but then I got into bootmgr is missing and I can't get past that with bootrec /fixboot because i get access is denied and to fix that I found some commands that i think will delete my partition, which i don't want.

    Help.

    :)
