Windows 10: transferring factory operating system from harddrive to ssd

I'm trying to transfer my operating system from my hard drive to my disk drive but mi having issues.

:)

 

Transfer System disk image to SSD


Here's my suggestion: Connect the SSD to the PC.

1. Download: Macrium Reflect Free and install then run.
   IMPORTANT: click on the 1st icon on the top left to create a Macrium Rescue disk (using USB or DVD)
2. Open Disk Management and make sure the SSD is disk 1.
   From Admin Command, type:
   diskpart
   select disk 1
   clean
   exit
   exit
3. From Macrium, The disk with Windows currently running will have the partitions as shown in your screen shot above. Click on Clone this disk...
   A Windows popup, click on select a disk to clone to...
   Click on the SSD
4. Select the 100MB "System Reserved", drag and drop to the destination (SSD)
5. Select the 60GB "C Drive", drag and drop to the destination(SSD) next to the System Reserved
6. Click Next->Finish
7. Once done, shutdown, disconnect the HD and connect the SSD Only
8. Boot up with the Macrium Rescue disk created in step 1.
9. Once booted, click on "Fix Windows boot problems" and follow the instruction to complete.
10. Remove the Rescue disk and reboot.

 

Upgrade a laptop's harddrive to ssd

Instead of giving you advice about what app to try (which we are not supposed to, in this website), I though why not give you the general direction (as we are supposed to do in this website).

To migrate and OS from HDD to SSD, you must do two things:

1. Migrate relevant partitions: That includes the boot partition and the system partition. A third-party app that can perform a sector-by-sector transfer is definitely needed. Carefully study their websites and choose an appropriate one that sees all the appropriate partitions and can transfer them.
   
2. Reconcile BCD: The Boot Configuration Data (BCD) on the new SSD still direct the operating system to load from the old HDD. That's because BCD does not deal with drive letters. Instead, it uses hardware identifiers. You can reconcile BCD using the bcdedit command-line tool that comes with Windows, but that is tedious. I suggest using Bootice instead. Direct Bootice toward the BCD residing on the new SSD. There are a total of 24 entries that you must modify. Could be more. Use your Superuser abilities!

In post 26 there were steps listed to fix the operating system corruption.
Are you able to follow them?
In post 29 was the suggested dism repair command.
