Boot to Recovery Environment

I have AOMEI Backupper Professional (v7.3.3) installed on two computers -  one running Win 10 (22H2) and the other running Win 11 (23H2). I have installed the recovery environment boot option on both computers, When I boot the Win 11 computer and select the "Enter into AOMEI Backerupper" it boots into the recovery environment. However, when I boot the Win 10 computer and select the enter Aomei option it loads the files but does not enter the recovery environment - it once again returns to the screen showing the boot options. Any ideas as what the problem is?

    For rare Windows 10 PCs, it needs to download the RE files manually first. Please go to BU > Tools > Create USB > Download Environment.
    I know that Aomei integrated RE is different than Aomei USB WinPE, it should work to download the needed files. If this does not work, please reply with a screenshot.
    Backupper WinPE USB:
    Add custom drivers, such as NVMe, if necessary. Does not work with some monitors.

    Aomei WinPE Builder USB:
    Partition Assistant, Backupper, Recuva, 7zip, OSF Mount, CPU-Z, Bootice, DiskMgmt.msc. Does not support any additional drivers, such as some internal NVMe disks.
    Aomei Recovery Environment integration

    Great suggestions AiArtisan. Tech social communities are a refreshing reminder that collaboration is still possible in a dystopian world.

    I forgot to mention that, while I was unable to boot into the recovery environment, I was able to restore a disk image by selecting the backupper restore option while in windows. It successfully restarted, booted up in the recovery environemt, and restored the selected disk image. However, this would not be possible, if for some reason, windows would not boot up. I took AiArtisan's advice and used the "Create Bootable Media" in backupper-tools. Since it would not permit me to directly create a bootable USB device, I used the create an ISO file option. I then "burned" the ISO file to a USB stick using the "Rufus" utility (https://rufus.ie/en/). Using the bootable USB stick I was able to boot directly into the backupper environment and resotre a disk image. This is a workable solution in the event windows will not boot up. I guess there is no way to fix the problem that prevented booting directly into the backupper recovery environment from the boot selection screen.

    About RecoveryEnv: try to use EasyBSD program for checking and changing boot options. You will see the list of boot order and can change the "errors".
