OS partition to SSD?

[Fredo_]

I look up many ways and even already created a thread on how to move my OS to my SSD but it seems like a failure everytime I attempt at moving my OS to my new SSD. people are using vocab that makes no sense like talking about running linux and all that, but I honestly believe there is an easier way to do it. Please walk me through this like a baby.
Edit 1: I'm using acronis 2015 btw

Is there any data in drive G: ?

You didn't move or delete anything.
In old screenshot used space was 572,3GB, in new one - 572,41GB.
You may have moved some data to Trash bin.

iF G: is empty, delete it and shrink windows partition max you can.
Not 123GB - as you have done now, but at least 600GB (better around 1200GB).
And create partition in freed up space.

G: had nothing in it and i restored items from recycle bin but it had nothing.

Edit 1: But before I do anything I just want to recover the lost files. Do I shrink G or C to get my lost data back?

There is nothing to recover. Used space in Windows partition is the same.
If it was not in Recycle bin, then you moved it somewhere else.

What do I do then?

Ah, I get it now.
You don't see shortcut to Downloads anymore, so you think you have lost whole downloads folder.
It is located in c:\users\<username>\Downloads\

Yes, you better get help from some computer technician.
For me those things seem rather simple, but I imagine that probably is not so for everyone.
Good luck. 😉
