[SOLVED] New OS drive needed....how do I access my other game drives after?

[olblindman]

My OS drive is messed up....windows files, driver files are all screwed up, and seems no way to fix without reformatting......so I want to install an new SSD. My games, photos, documents are on other multiple drives, so my question is can I move my STEAM, EPIC, UBiSOFT, OCULUS folders from my old OS to the new, in order to access my saved games/files? I can still get my old drive to run, and can temporarily hook it up to transfer files, but will it work, and are there hidden files which I may miss? I don't see Oculus, or Epic listed on my C: drive. Any help would be appreciated!

Steam does have utility to move their games to a new location, don't know about others. Of other installed programs/games, only portable versions are going to work, installed.... oh well, that's up to particular program/game but most will have to be reinstalled.

For Steam games:

The other launchers have a similar function, but I don't have the specifics documented.
