I suddenly got this strange problem when going from 9-10 gear it don't engage and when I go to 11 it make a crunch when going past 10 into 11.
There is no problem going from small to bigger cogs or in any other gears just from 9-10 gear.

I’d go back through the installation set-up, the only time I’ve had shifting issues was when the mount bolt loosened up ever so slightly.

You could try to adjust it with micro shift to see if that makes a difference. The one other thing I’d check is the teeth on that cog, I’ve seen a broken tooth cause the same issue.

The mount bolt is tight enough and I have done 4.000 km since installation and there is no damage to the teeth or chain I have also tried to adjust the micro shift which goes from 1 to 14 and mine was sett at 11 when installed so I have tried to go up/down a few numbers but not a lot but I thought the MS would impact all gears so if you have problem with one gear it won't help since it got a different purpose.
Reckon I leave it at LBS next week so they can fix it in 5 minutes.

LBS checked the whole drivtrain but couldn't find anything wrong then they loosened the mount bolt and reattached it and then everything worked as it should.
Took 10 minutes and cost nothing.

Couple of years ago wife's Trek Rail front wheel absolutely refused to stay inflated when riding. Couldn't figure it out. Took tyre off, checked the rim for dents, changed the valve, checked rim tape, put on a spare tyre, but still wouldn't stay inflated.

Took tyre off again then out of frustration ran a finger around inside of rim on both sides and suddenly felt a very small bump ... which turned out to be a tiny sliver of rock driven into the inside of the rim. Pinged it off then all good, sealant sealed it.

Most likely the derailleur is out of rotational alignment. Put the Loosen the main derailleur pivot bolt, pull the cage all the way back, set to the correct cassette cog for alignment, pull back again, torque to spec. Basically just follow the setup instructions again. I've seen this happen often when folks remove their rear wheel or when the derailleur took a big hit.
