Are you aiming for a precise boot clone of the original disk or merely transferring data files? If the latter, I’d start with a fresh setup on the new drive and continue from there. If the former, copying just the Documents and Downloads sections would suffice. Cloning a boot sector can be tricky—most attempts succeed, but failures require careful handling.

I'm keeping track of the progress. After a week, Windows 11 released a significant update, and we tried the Samsung data migration—it functioned perfectly. Now I think a Windows update is what's missing. We also created an exact backup of her original drive.
