Bought a Crucial NVME/PCIe to clone my OS from my Samsung SSD. Used BalenaEtcher to clone my drive, process went successfully and followed instructions carefully. Restarted my PC, booted to BIOS and switched the boot priority to my new NVME clone.
Got a boot error from Windows boot management that the boot configuration data is missing or corrupt. Switched the boot priority back to my original OS Samsung drive, but the same error happens on boot - even when I unscrewed and removed the NVME straight from the Motherboard. Which I don't understand at all since I simply cloned from the drive and the OS and all files should still be intact on my original SSD.
I've tried using Windows repair, command prompts to repair and restore the BCD, but no good. Could really use some advice - I've spent the past few days trying to fix this for what should be a relatively easy process. According to peeps online, anyway.
Help? Thank you!
