So my ssd was faulty, but luckily I was able to transfer all the files (literally copied and pasted) to my hdd. They're just sitting in a folder on my data drive at the moment and I have a new ssd installed. Is there a way to restore the settings and programs to how they were before the swap as I still have all the original files and whatnot. Any help would be much appreciated!

In a word No, You can copy to the new drive any particular files you need, and you will be able to copy some program configuration files, but you will have to reinstall the O/S and any programs you need for them to operate. Portable programs excepted.
The best way to prevent this issue in future would be to image the hard drive, meaning you could replace the drive and have the system back exactly as it was in double quick time.
