Patch can't find installation

I've recently re-installed OS, and pre-loaded on Witcher 3 on GOG several days before. After installing GOG on a new system, I successfully imported installation, but there is no trace of installation in OS. Can't repare files, can't update, can't install patch downloaded on GOG website. Is there a solution so I don't download whole installation again? Maybe registry key string?

Thanks

Or If you can tell me the exact location of patch files. I can extract .exe with 7zip if it works that way at all.

1. Quit GOG Galaxy
2. Open your "the witcher 3" installation folder
3. Delete the ".info" file
4. Lauch GOG Galaxy
5. Go to your library : The Witcher 3.
6. Click on "MORE"
7. Click on "MANAGE".
8. Click on "VERIFY/REPAIR"
9. Let the launcher check the file and download a 600MB patch.
10. It should be ok.

4. Start Galaxy
It will then tell you that the game is damaged and now you can verify the files. That seems to take some time (I'm at 26% right now). Maybe there are in fact some files missing and that procedure will help. Let's pray


WORKS!! Wotks for me, I backed up the folder, uninstall it, restore the folder to it's original place, start galaxy and import.
