How large are the folders on file explorer?

 

These are likely just leftover files. You can have a look inside the folders.

Are they able to be deleted? if not try this Download Unlocker 1.9.2 for Windows - Filehippo.com helped me delete some windows files on my secondary SSD.

You can assign folders with steam and search, also you can do a steam option for verifing game files (although it might just try to download the whole game again). if it's on another drive or in a different folder than all of your other games/steam library.

you can try two things. 

 

in the Steam client right click on the game, click "install" 

make sure the drive the files are on is set to default installation drive in steam "settings" 

 

if that doesn't work, try right click, properties, verify files.
