Cloned ssd, got error: reboot and select proper boot device

I upgraded from 960 evo to 970 evo ssd. cloned it with Macrium Reflect. when I put the new ssd higher on boot sequence I get this error: reboot and select proper boot device. couldnt fix it anyway.

one thing i noticed my first boot device is set to Windows boot manager. If I disable 'Windows boot manager' even my older ssd doesnt boot.

Sounds like you didn't clone WBM... Which is necessary for Windows to launch... Try using old SSD or LiveUSB to see, how many volumes are there on new SSD (should be at least 3, main OS, Boot Manager and Recovery stuff, sometimes there's also OEM stuff, so that would make 4).

Purify your Windows 10/11, don't give Microsoft anything that you don't want to share.

is there a way to copy that separately? 

Some programs might not pick it up while cloning stuff. I only know for sure that Acronis does.
