My PC dual boots Windows 10 and 11, each installed on a separate SSD. I want to erase the Windows 10 disk. However, my computer won't boot past the BIOS if I unplug the Windows 10 SSD. According to the Disk Management program, my Windows 10 drive is where my EFI System Partition is located. How do I move the Windows EFI boot partition to another drive?
