Ok I just think that the problems arise because my system is fully up to date with the 2023 Boot Cerificates, it will NOT boot with 2011 certificates! Had to replace the boot files with powershell with the 2023 certificates as the 2011 ones where added, but that seems to be a problem with most of them like Macrium / Aomei etc. only 1 system btw. I only use USB backup and restore as most of us older Geeks prefer that way. But we are walking away from what the real problem is, and thats like Win-RE not checked and Boot-drive C: not accesseble.
The Asus(other PC) does not have this problem. System specs:
