How to have Steam scan for games
Just drag and drop your games into the Steam folder and hit refresh, works like a charm. Not really, but adding the game folder in 'Steam Library Folders' as mentioned does the magic!

Easy peasy! Open your Steam client, go to 'Settings,' click on 'Downloads,' and then hit 'STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS.' Here, you can add new folders for Steam to search for installed games. If you've installed games but Steam isn't recognizing them, adding the folder they're in to this list will prompt Steam to scan and recognize the games.
Honestly, just reinstall the game. It's faster than finding a fix.
Steam鈥檚 pretty smart at finding games, but if it acts up, just point it in the right direction via 'Settings' > 'Downloads' > 'Steam Library Folders.' It鈥檚 almost like telling a lost puppy where home is.
