Lost Vortex but not my mods, can I import?

[BarnyTrubble]

I had to do a system reset that deleted everything on my C drive, which is where Vortex was. All my games and mod files are on my D drive, which was untouched during this process. When I re-downloaded Vortex it gave me an error that mods couldn't be deployed and asked me to pick a staging folder on the same drive as my game. All of this was the same as the first time I downloaded, so I thought at first I would just pick the same folder, but it needed to be an empty folder. So before I did anything else like delete all my mods or piss and moan about it I figured I would ask if there is a way to still use the mods that have been downloaded and are sitting there on my D drive.
