I upgraded the hard drive of my Envy to SSD. I cloned the my old HDD before putting in my new SSD. When power on the laptop it shows error code 0xc0000225. I am able to press escape and get to boot options (F9). When I select F9 there are 3 different options for OS Boot Manager. When I click on 1 of them it starts up the computer very fast. When I click on the other 2 it brings me back to the error screen. Any tips on how to get the error screen to go away and just boot normally without the extra step of picking the correct OS Boot Manager?

Hello
0xc0000225 error happens because the EFI partition contains a BCD file that includes reference to the partition that was on the old disk.
could you tell me how you cloded the disk from HDD to SSD ?
aru you familiar with WinPE and diskpart ?
your new SSS is M.2 NVMe or M.2 SATA or SATA 2.5" ?
bye

Thank you for your response. It is a Western Digital Blue SATA 2.5. I used the software for WD on their website to clone the HDD with a USB to SATA connector. Acronis True Image WD Edition. Yes, I have used DiskPart once before.

Hello
you didn't load correctly the picture.
This is what you need to do:
- start a WinPE environment. if you have an USB for WIndows 10 Installation, you can use it in this way:
- boot from USB Key
- if asked , select your preferred language
- you should arrive at the windows where you see you SSD , but you don't have to continue with the installation.
- press SHift + F10 , this should open a CMD Promt Window with black backgroup
- type DISKPART
- at diskpart prompt type
- list disK
- you should see your unique SSD listed as disk 0
- sel dis 0
- lis par
- you should see the list of parttion on you SSD
- you MUST find the partition called SYSTEM
- you MUST look to the number of this partition.
- I don't know on your disk qhich is the number , I assum it's partition #1
- if in your disk is another number , for the following command use your number instead of #1
- sel par 1
- assign letter=S
- exit
- now you shuld be back the CMD prompt , out of diskpart
- s:
- cd efi\microsoft\boot
- in this folder this is a file named BCD , we need to modify it with the next commands:
- bcdedit /store.\BCD /set {bootmgr} device partition=S:
bcdedit /store.\BCD /set {default} device partition=c:
bcdedit /store.\BCD /set {default} osdevice partition=c: - bcdedit /store .\BCD
you should see something like this (but in your language
close all windows
stop installation
restart your PC.
bye
