I’m not sure what you mean by the question. Could you clarify whether you’re referring to files only, the operating system, or a cloned/migrated disk? That way I can better understand what you’re asking about.
You cannot perform that action on an operating system—it won’t function. You need to create a clone of the disk, but you can’t do this directly from within Windows.
Only copying affects file system permissions and causes problems like locking files. This method isn’t recommended. Use free tools such as minitool partition wizard to clone the drive to an NVMe storage. After that, disconnect the old drive and adjust boot settings in BIOS to set the NVMe as the primary device. Windows may still crash at startup, so ensure you have a bootable USB before making changes. If your system boots only about 70% of the time, try using the USB during repair—Windows will handle the issue automatically.
