I just cloned C drive into new SSD then tried to boot with SSD but it didn't shown up on bios settings. Then I tried the following method..

 

Rapidly taped F9 for Boot Options Menu. Arrow down to Boot from EFI File. Selected the long line of text that starts with No Volume Label, etc etc.

Choose <EFI>

Arrow down to <Boot>

Arrow down to bootx64.efi

It booted up one time into the SSD. Then wiped the HDD, from there for using it for storage only.

 

But when I restarted the PC it shows up Automatic repair window and 'Automatic Repair couldn't repair your PC' shows up with two options as 'Shut down' and 'Advanced options'.

What should I do now..

 

Note: When I checked on command prompt, all the files are in D drive not in C

It works only when I follow the method I mentioned in the previous query, and also the SSD shows up as C drive but when I shut down and start PC then it enters into Automatic repair mode and there shows files are in D drive in command prompt.
How can I make SSD as permanent boot drive.?
