I was unable to boot a restored Windows backup. So I reinstalled Windows and installed the necessary programs. Then I wanted to switch from this working 1TB SSD to a better, faster, and larger SSD, so I cloned the Windows SSD to another NVMe drive. However, the clone cannot be booted, even when I choose them in the boot drive selector at start up.
I then resorted to my usual helper for boot problems, a USB boot stick with Macrium Reflect. However, it couldn't restore the boot files either because it couldn't find an active partition on the larger SSD (“can be any primary partition on the boot drive”). But how can I fix this on a UEFI computer with GPT drives?
