Now after i completed that process i swap the sdd in and booted up fine. i used the laptop like i normally would. when i wanted to reset the laptop to wipe all my files. it shows up with "could not find the recovery enviorment" "insert your windows installation or recovery media, and restart your pc with the media". im not sure how i can find and copy the recovery environment. i still have the old hdd and its files. this is on windows 10 pro

BSOD Recovery Media Fails

Hi,

This issue might have occurred when the boot files are missing or corrupted.

I suggest you re-built the boot record by following the below commands and check if it helps.

You will have to use Windows 10 installation media to follow the steps to boot into Recovery Environment and try to rebuild BCD.

Step 1: I suggest you to create an installation media for
Windows 10 using the media creation tool:

Step 2: After preparing the installation media, insert it hard reboot the device and follow the below:

• Boot into Windows Recovery Environment using the Windows 10 installation media.
• Click on Repair your computer.
  
• Click on Troubleshoot and in the Advanced options.
• Select Command Prompt. Type the following commands into the prompt and press Enter key after each command.
  • bootrec /fixmbr
  • bootrec /fixboot
  • bootrec /scanos
