Importing an existing project

I would like to know how to import an existing webhelp file set. I do not have the corresponding project file and supporting files - I just have the output files. I recently purchased RoboHelp for the purpose of importing the existing output file set and making some updates.

I would like to avoid recreating the topics, index, and search files.

To be clear I have only the following folders:
webhelp\
webhelp\html
webhelp\image
webhelp\whdata
webhelp\whgdata
webhelp\whxdata

Welcome to our community, Chris

Unfortunately, I'm doubtful there is going to be any way past re-creating the Index and whatnot. But I've outlined the process of recovering a WebHelp project at the link below:
