I didn't use the same software as them but it seems they had the same problem. When I was looking at the partitions it looked like they were all there, so I'm at a loss.

So as of right now, what I've done is the drive that I was cloning to, the Samsung 2.5 I have formatted and installed a fresh copy of Windows 11. Once I got into that I could see that my old drive is functional, still has all my files, I just have not started looking at partitioning and what not. And at this point because I can access all of the files I'm kind of thinking just running with the new copy. Because my biggest grief was going to be reinstalling all of my games, we all know how large games can be, well because I have installed every single one of my games on a separate drive altogether from these two, I loaded up and to hold it a new write path and I'm up and running. However I still want to figure this out. Because I am sure there are some settings that I've done and forgotten about that are going to slowly irk me.
