BCD (Boot Configuration Data) entry is incorrect after the recovery on uEFI system. Then the parameter "device" in Windows Boot Manager is deleted after the recovery.

WORKAROUND:
Perform the below step on the restored OS.

1. Open Command Prompt.
2. Run "bcdedit".
3. Run "bcdboot c:\windows".
4. Reboot the system.

Or boot from "Windows Boot Manager" after temporarily booting from Disk 0 since "Windows Boot Manager" is updated once the booting is successful.

Booting is unsuccessful from "Windows Boot Manager" on the top of boot order in EFI setup. The booting is successful from Disk 0.
