Unwillingness to boot

[Jackson Lehmann]

Hey everyone, 

I have had some problems that have recently arisen with my pc. A couple of months ago I upgraded from a mechanical hard drive to an M.2 drive. As soon as I made this change my PC decided it would like for me to press F1 and run the setup every time I boot into windows. in addition to this, it shows that my m.2 drive is at the top of my boot priority, but won't automatically boot into windows when I press same and exit. To boot, I have to go into boot options and click on the drive for it to work. While I don't mind this too much, it makes updating windows very complicated when it has to restart. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
