[SOLVED] How to get windows to recognize installed games from another hard drive

[Demoniacs]

Story so far: my hdd where win 10 was installed went down (tried several times to do win repair to no avail) so i had to delete and format the drive where win 10 was installed. I have a new ssd where my new os is installed (windows 10)

What im trying to do: the old drive still has my games on a different partition still intact and i want the newly installed os to recognize that they are installed on that partition (show up on add remove programs/apps) Is there a n00b friendly way to do it or do I have to reinstall those again.

I hate to lose all the time ive spent with some of the games.

TIA
