How do you add non steam games back to your library?

Why doesn't it use steam cloud?

How do i use the normal steam interface? I hate big picture mode with a passion.

How did you install them? Lutris and Heroic can add them automatically. Otherwise right-click the entry and choose add to Steam. If the game made an entry to your application menu in desktop mode you can right click that as well to add it to Steam.

You have to restart Steam for that to take effect.

You can use that in desktop mode.

Thank you for the response.
I installed the games on my external hard drive. I did find the add to steam option. I'll keep playing with it.
