[Solved] Help please

[el chino]

So I've been using ppsspp for a long long time now, no problems whatsoever for the longest time. I always used to ignore PSP emulators for years, until I found ppsspp... which has just been perfect since day one. Like I said, no problems... until today. I've formatted my computer today, but saved my ppsspp folder with everything in it on an external hardrive. But upon reinstalling it... it recognizes none of my save files or save stats. I have no idea why and no clue how to solve this situation. I'm am extremly bad with PC's so this is just driving me crazy. I've been trying for hours now, but to no avail. Could anyone whos knows whats going on here please offer some insight into how I can fix this?

Thank you for your time.
