If you want just the windows, without the applications and stuff on it, just download windows again.
If you want to transfer your data, mirror the drive.

There is no application or functionality to copy "only windows" from one drive to another.
None at all.

We can delve into migrating the whole thing. But not "only Windows".

First, I would return the hard drive in favor of a ssd.
Today, there is no good reason to be using a HDD for windows.

Then, with only the target C drive attached(disconnect any others) you can download and install windows.
Later, when you reconnect the original HDD, all of the data folders will be available to you. The original windows folders can be deleted.
