When you clone your Windows 11 installation, you might not get the same performance boost as you would if you installed a fresh copy of Windows on the new SSD. This is because the cloned installation might still be limited by the old SSD's performance characteristics.
Some applications might not work properly or might even crash after being cloned Windows 11 to a new SSD. This could be due to issues with the app's registry entries, dependencies, or other configuration settings that weren't properly migrated during the cloning process.
