New computer, fresh install of windows 10 and Bootit UFI 2.03,resize partition and performed copy paste with add to bootit menu option to free space to create a total of 3 partitions. the main partition boots fine, the other2 partitions select and get stuck on a black screen with the windows dots spinning. unable to get it to boot to the other 2 partitions.
I have an same model and Gen laptop that bootit is working on, i have a back up of it with "Image" tried restoring that drive image to new computer reinstall Bootit and the issue is the same, windows 10 1 partition boots fine, all others get stuck
any help would be appreciated. I have done the bootit install a few times with no issues on other computers

chkdsk /f the original partition, then copy again.

Ran chdsk /f on original partition, no errors, deleted and and copied again. select either partition 2 or 3 from boot it and stuck at spinning dots.
partition 1 still boots ok. is there a windows 10 update that caused this issue?

you can try safe mode to see if some type of non critical service causing it.

Trying to boot in to safe mode takes me back to Bootit.
ive tried reinstalling windows 10 without updates. copying partition and able to boot a few times, then back to spinning wheel, not having this issue with single boot computers or prior to installing bootit. my other boot it computers have never had this issue
any additional things to try

Found issue was with bootit partition manager. no matter what it tired kept failing. used partwork for windows also with no luck. Tried a different brand partition program and was able to copy the partitions and re setup Bootit with no issues.
