[SOLVED] Are my BOOT options okay?

Hello, I have a problem with my SSD being not recognized every morning by my system. In fact it works well other than that (to fix that issue I need to turn off my PSU and then turn it on)
I think it might be because I plugged in my old HDD (with MBR windows on it) just to copy files from it. But could it break the boot on my SSD?
Because in the morning I get a 0x000000f message on a blackscreen with a file: \Windows\system32\winresume.efi

Not sure that it is a boot problem BUT I need to narrow it down.

Could any of you guys confirm that my boot settings are RIGHT? Because I see it says 'bootmgr' as an identifier even tho I installed UEFI GPT Windows (at least it should have been) and on youtube videos I see 'device' in Windows Boot Manager as partition=C and not some 'partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1'

When I write 'bcdedit' in my command prompt it does have following settings:

Windows Boot Manager
identifier {bootmgr}
device partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1
path \EFI\MICROSOFT\BOOT\BOOTMGFW.EFI
description Windows Boot Manager
inherit {globalsettings}
default {default}
resumeobject Do I need to show that number or not?
displayorder {default}
toolsdisplayorder {memdiag}
timeout 30

Windows Boot Loader
identifier {default}
device partition=C:
path \Windows\system32\winload.efi
description Windows 10
inherit {bootloadersettings}
recoverysequence Do I need to show that number or not?
displaymessageoverride Recovery
recoveryenabled Yes
isolatedcontext Yes
allowedinmemorysettings 0x15000075
osdevice partition=C:
systemroot \Windows
resumeobject Do I need to show that number or not?
nx OptIn
bootmenupolicy Standard

mbr drives are using drive volume numbers, uefi gpt is using drive letters
to confirm you have correct drive letters, boot from usb install media, enter command line and type in those commands:
diskpart
list vol
exit

if drive letter for your windows drive is not correct, then type in:
bcdedit letter:\Windows (replace letter with your drive letter like C)

Thanks! Will give it a try.

Also when I type in command prompt in windows (not in usb creation tool)
diskpart
list volume


It says that my C: boot drive is Volume 0

But in Windows Boot Manager it says ' device partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1 '
My Volume 1 is disk D: which doesnt have any windows on it.

Do I need to change my 'device partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1' to 'device partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume0' ???

My SYSTEM Volume (FAT 32 100 MB) is Volume 2
And Volume 3 is Hidden 500 MB NTFS (Sorry can't copy info cuz my command prompt is not in english)
