Formatting primary drive, but what about installed programs on the secondary?

Hey.

I'm going to be reinstalling Windows on my SSD but I was just wondering about the installed programs I have on my second storage drive. Am I right in thinking that I will have to reinstall the programs that are on it (storage drive) in order for Windows to recognize them, and for me to use them without problems on the fresh install of Windows?

Thanks. I'll do it and see what works then.
