So, have you gone to the GAMES tab, in Vortex and looked at the MANAGED and UNMANAGED section, and looked to see if your game shows up in Color on the Unmanaged tab?

If the game shows up in Color in the Unamanaged Tab, then click on the MANAGE button that shows up when you mouse over it.

You can simply click on the game tile and point Vortex to the folder containing the EXE file. That'll set it up without requiring detection. It should be noted, however that having your games installed to Program Files may cause weird problems with modding later on.
