Windows 10: Change to a new c drive

I have been running on a old 250gb hard drive for the past couple months and have recently purchased a new hard drive and some ssd’s i would like to transfer my files from my old hard drive to my new one and make my new hard drive the default drive for my computer. I have tried copying all my files to the new drive but some files will not copy over.

Stuck in Automatic Repair = inadvertently changed C: drive path?

@zbook- what I'm suggesting should resurrect the PC, provided what's left on the "C:" is at all viable - the clean install is just a step to that. Saves a lot of technical bits and time on our part.
