Use your back up files 
or
Make a folder for each project.
Put the audio folder and the CWP icon within that folder. 
or
Move your old global audio folder content into the new global audio folder. 
 
never use the global audio folder. 
That's a bad way to work as you just found out.
From now on always use per project folders. 
They are super easy to deal with and you'll never loss your work. 

Cactus, thanks for the quick reply.
If you don't mind can you please give me step by step instructions how to do it because i never have to deal with this problem until now that my old hard drive failed and i have to install a new one.
Like i say i have the folder on my desktop with all the audio for these project but i don't know where to start.
I really appreciated it.
thanks

If it were me, I'd first dump all of the wave files in the global audio folder (that's a path defined in Preferences).  With all of the projects (CWP) in the same folder they should by default find their required audio when opened since all of the wave files are located in that global folder.    Then, as you open each project do a Save As to a new, unique folder name, and choose "Yes" to copy the project's audio -that audio should get copied over to the new project folder's \audio sub-folder that gets created on-the-fly.
 
What you should end up with is a series of folders, each named per the project, and each with an \audio sub-folder containing only that project's audio.   Then you will also have the global audio folder as a main backup... though technically that shouldn't be needed if you're using per-project audio (also in Preferences).
 

I thought my instructions seemed self explanatory. Steve above has agreed with my 3rd choice. Try the global audio folder. 
And what Steve is saying about then use "save as" and now save everything to it's own folder is also what I recommend when I say use per project folders. Then next time you change hard drives all will be very simple. 
 
You simply copy/ paste,, drag /drop,, move or ?? the audio to the global folder. Windows has a dozen ways you can perform moving stuff around.   
Make sure you have more than one copy just in case. Hopefully the files are also stored on an external drive too. 
 
Question, you say the audio is in this folder on your desktop. Is that just the audio?  
Where are your CWP files at this point?

That is a good question...

I would recommend removing the folder off the desk top as there is no reason for it to be there and put it in the default location. (C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Roaming\Cakewalk\SONAR Platinum\Audio Data)
 
Then go to "Preferences > File > Audio Data" and set the location to there.
 
Now your projects that use Global Audio should automatically find the right files when you open them.
