mod name, category, and version lost after vortex uninstall/reinstall

I did an extensive Vortex uninstall using an uninstaller program to remove extraneous files left over from running the uninstaller.

My mod staging directory was still there, and I did a complete re-install of vortex.

Fortunately, Vortex recognized the mods still in the staging directory.

Unfortunately, it believed they were from another profile and wanted to purge them.

I decided not to do that as I didn't want to have to re-download all of my mods.

Now the mods are there... but with the name of the folder they were in. The mod name from nexus mods is lost.

As is the mod version and category. My big complaint is having no mod categories.

I have a feeling the only solution is to purge my old mods staging folder and re-download all of my mods.

Is anyone familiar with such a situation and is there a method to download nexusmods information solely based on Vortex's mod staging folder?
