Robert, welcome to these public User Forums.

Cloning to the SSD in an external enclosure introduces additional hardware that can cause the issue you are seeing.

If this is a laptop system, then cloning should always be done from external drive to internal drive too.

Please see KB 56634: Acronis True Image: how to clone a disk - and review the step by step guide given there.

Note: the first section of the above KB document directs laptop users to KB 2931: How to clone a laptop hard drive - and has the following paragraph:

It is recommended to put the new drive in the laptop first, and connect the old drive via USB. Otherwise you will may not be able to boot from the new cloned drive, as Acronis True Image will apply a bootability fix to the new disk and adjust the boot settings of the target drive to boot from USB. If the new disk is inside the laptop, the boot settings will be automatically adjusted to boot from internal disk. As such, hard disk bays cannot be used for target disks. For example, if you have a target hard disk (i.e. the new disk to which you clone, and from which you intend to boot the machine) in a bay, and not physically inside the laptop, the target hard disk will be unbootable after the cloning.

See forum topic here for how I have done similar migration to my own NVMe M.2 SSD drives.

I have a desktop,cloning from a active win 10 my be my problem will try to boot from acronis usb and see if that works every one i have seen on utube does not clone from active window open.

Robert, the other approach is to use Backup & Recovery instead of using cloning.

Make a full Disk backup of the working internal drive to an external backup storage drive or location.

Shutdown the PC, remove that internal drive and install the new NVMe SSD.

Boot from the 'Simple' WinPE Acronis rescue media - this should be using UEFI boot mode ideally for best support of NVMe drives.

Recover the disk backup image from the external drive to the internal NVMe SSD.
