How can I associate my Visual Studio 2022 install with Visual Studio installer?

I have a Visual Studio 2022 install, I want to add components to it but Visual Studio Installer says "No products are installed"

Clicking the button from the Visual Studio installer shows this window (I can't add the image, so I will symbolically type it out):

================================

| Visual Studio Installer |

| For this action, --channelId and --productID |

| Or --installPath is required |

| Command Usage |

| And all the command line arguments listed |

| [Close] |

================================

How can I associate it back? I don't want to re-install Visual Studio

The path is D:\copy\My\Visual Studio 2022 (1)
