Reinstalling Windows 10 Store games without downloading again

Does anyone know how you can get a fresh install of Windows 10 to recognise game folders (Gears of War 4) that was installed on an external drive in the previous installation?

Thanks, I'll give it a try the next time I reinstall Windows. I overwrote all my Gears 4 files by just telling Windows to install back to the same drive. It didn't pick up there was an existing installation - it deleted it all and started to download from scratch. Windows store is complete tripe.
