Your computer indicates it should reboot and choose the correct boot device.
I recently relocated my PC from one floor to another, and it functioned perfectly initially. However, after moving, it stopped working properly. I’ve watched many YouTube tutorials about changing boot options (two available: my 2TB Samsung SSD and an inactive option), restarted BIOS, and removed the CMOS battery. I’m unsure if a new SSD is necessary or how to identify which drive hosted my OS. Additionally, I never used Windows before—it always displayed “Activate Windows” in the bottom right corner—and discovered a suspicious website that provided a free key. Please help me understand what’s happening.
It seems there was an issue during the transfer. We won't help with activating your Windows beyond suggesting a complete reset and reinstall. That uncertain action probably contained a lot of malicious software.
I got it, thanks! At that stage I wasn't even sure what it was, but it seems the connection wasn't secured properly and it failed, though it's now fixed.
