Hello, Recently out of nowhere my system boots into my HDD and not to my boot drive (NVME drive). I don't have Windows installed on the HDD only on my NVME. Every time i turn my pc on it goes into Diagnosing problem with start up and leads me to the recovery menu. I have to go into UEFI BIOS from there and then change boot order to my NVME drive and reboot into Windows. I noticed it says "Windows Boot Loader" on both of the drives listed in BIOS boot selector. I only have some programs installed on the HDD and only use NVME for boot. I haven't installed any new programs or anything it just happened on its own. Please help! Motherboard is Gigabyte a320m-s2h

Place the NVME drive at the leading spot and ensure "Save Changes and Reset" appears before you exit, otherwise it will revert to the original sequence.

Did you preserve your settings before shutting down the BIOS? Yes, this allows you to set the HDD as the boot device in BIOS, meaning only the SSD will start up. I own three HDDs and one NVMe drive; two of the HDDs are identified as boot devices, so I removed those from the boot selection.

I completed that task, though after shutdown it goes back to the previous state.

Attempted fix didn't succeed. Instructed to remove the EFI partition on the HDD after which the PC starts in BIOS without showing boot options, then switches to Windows when exiting BIOS. Problem remains unresolved for version x.x.
