Windows 10: Old Windows on HDD Not Showing in Boot Menu After Installing Windows on SSD

Hello,Till yesterday I was using Windows 10 installed on my HDD, and it was working fine. Than , I added an SSD in the M.2 slot to my laptop and installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 on it using a bootable USB drive. During the installation, I chose the Custom Installation option and selected the SSD Drive 1 as the installation location. I did not modify or remove anything on the HDD.Currently, the new Windows installed on the SSD works perfectly, and I can access the files on the HDD Drive D, E, and F from File Manager, except for the Users folder from the old Windows installation on the

Automatic repair while booting from hdd and installing windows on ssd.

1. Migrated windows from hdd to ssd
   
2. Formatted hdd
   
3. Prioritised boot from ssd in bios
   
4. Turned on the pc
   
5. Automatic repair
   

To deal with this I select boot from a device > then EFI USB device > it says no bootable USB detected, select from these drives > there are few options including the newly installed ssd > I select ssd > then it shows disk checking, press any key to stop > I stop it > windows then boots from ssd.

It very difficult to repeat all this everytime I turn on my pc. Please suggest a fix.

Windows will not boot from SSD after reformatting old HDD

hi Greg,

Thanks once again for your help!

so for some reason, my PC would not boot from my RAID if it was setup as RAID 5, I configured it with RAID 10 and I was able to install Windows on the RAID (SSD unplugged). I will move back to RAID 5 once I am able to boot from my SSD.

I installed Win10 on my RAID with SSD unplugged

Plugged SSD back in, booted from my HDD RAID and shrunk the SSD partition via Disk Manager.

Unplugged the HDDs and installed Win10 on the SSD unallocated space.

Dual boot now shows 3 boot options but I'm not sure why as I only have 2 partitions on the SSD and the HDDs are still unplugged. Windows Media is not able to repair the other 2 Windows boot options.

I cannot find \windows\System32\Logfile\Srt\SrtTrail.txt under any of the drives (C, D, E and X)

And booting from the other 2 gives the same error as before but with different error code:

The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.

File: \\Windows\System32\winload.exe

Error code: 0xc0000000e

Now I need to somehow repair the boot environment on my old SSD partition. Would you have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Felipe.
