Cubase 8 plugins with win7 to win10 upgrade

I dont want to clone, I just want to be sure the plugins associated with cubase 8 aren’t lost in the operating system upgrade. The upgrade isnt going smoothly so I’m expecting to do a fresh install of win 10. Trying to determine if there is a file chain I can drag/drop into the new cubase program files to have plugin packs in tact. Not sure I know where all my plugin disks/exe’s are.
