I’ve been reading online and discovered that my cloned SSD won’t boot up windows 10. The problem is that i already erased all the data from my hard drive so i can’t access the internet. I know that i can get a Windows recovery drive and re install windows that way. My question is, if i fix the issue through a recovery drive, will i still have all the files that i imported to my SSD? Or Is everything corrupted/erased? Is it possible for me to restore all the files from my hard drive (newly erased, nothing overwritten)?

Usually the recovery option for any OS from Microsoft is borked. The end result was having a backup of your critical content on a removable drive while performing a clean install of the OS(sans the clone) using a bootable USB/DVD installer after creating it through Windows Media Creation Tools. This ensures that there are no corruptions or mishaps. I'm not a fan of cloning tools since a lot of things that can go wrong, often do.

You could try and recover using the recovery drive but after all those hours lost, you'd bite your tongue and proceed with a reinstall. In it's current state you could try and recover data using Recuva or TestDisk but you're going to need a donor system and your results may vary as Windows 10 is known to be a secure OS.
