I have cloned my 1 TB SSD to a new one 4TB. (Samsung Pro 990) But Windows doesn't boot and can't even recognize my SSD. Computer (Asus Zenbook A14 UX3407RA) BIOS shows Samsung SSD but windows doesn't booth. Even I tried to boot by usb, windows still reacts like I have no SSD. I should correct something through command prompt? Disk.ini? (I've changed cloned SSD with external connection, it seems exactly same even with system files) Could you please advise me something? Or should I reinstall windows from the beginning? :(
I am waiting Airbus 350 for installation media Nouria. At the moment unfortunately I don't have installation media for arm. I have my old SSD still working, will try to boot by new SSD through installation media and the way Airbus 350 advises here by command prompts.
Dear Airbus A350, you can't imagine how I am tired of Windows; maybe I could try to find and install another OS? This time I receive the error code of "We're not sure what happened, but we're unable to run this tool on your PC....Error code:0x8007007E-0x20000" when I tried to use Media Creation Tool which you have sent. Why everything such hard with Windows? All I want to do is to install or fix windows in new SSD.
Hello,
Depending on how you cloned the disk, Windows might not have copied the boot files.
You can fix this by booting the Windows installation media and then running these commands:
diskpart
list disk
sel disk # (where # to the disk number of your internal SSD)
list vol (remember the volume letter of the Windows volume)
exit
bcdboot C:\Windows (replace C with the volume letter of the Windows volume if it's not C)
wpeutil reboot
Are you able to boot to Windows?
Let me know how this goes.

how do you boot installation media?
Unfortunately even USB flash booth doesn't recognize SSD :( How this might happen? Its shown in Bios, its shown in with USB connection, there is no mistake in SSD but windows cant boot, cant even see that? Its related with "Arm64" I assume. Somehow can't recognize "Standars NVME Express Controller device?
Hello,
Do you have a Windows installation USB? Or does Windows error out with a blue screen when you boot? Or does your PC not reach Windows at all?
If you don't have a bootable Windows installation USB, on another computer, download the Media Creation Tool (click here for the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool, and click here for the Windows 11 Media Creation Tool), and then run the file once it downloads. If you get a prompt asking if you want to allow the app to make changes to your device, simply push Yes. Once the MCT comes up, insert your USB flash drive, choose your architecture, language, and time/currency format, make sure to push "USB Flash Drive", as this will create a bootable USB. Let the MCT create the bootable USB and then eject the flash drive once it's done.
On the non-functioning computer, push Shift + F10 and then type the commands above.
Let me know how this goes.

Hello,
The Media Creation Tool doesn't work on Arm64 devices.
I wrote that out with the belief that you had an x64 device but after some clarification, that's not the case.
In your other thread, I gave you some links to Windows 11 ISOs (which have expired as of the time of writing).
If you need me to generate them again, I'll happily oblige.
Hope this helps.
