How do I make my repo appear on my Github Desktop (Github for Windows)?

I made a repo on my local hard drive and push it to github using CLI. It's up on Github now. But now I want it to also appear on my github desktop. The only option I see is 'clone' and 'save to my computer'. These options are meant to make a new directory inside my local hard drive and clone what's already on my github there, while I already have the original file on my hard drive. So, how do I make my repository appear on my Desktop without cloning? Can someone help, please? Thanks.

In yours desktop GitHub open "Add" (blue "plus" button on the top-left) and add yours local repo. Then in that repo's settings point it's "Remote" origin to yours github repo (url to github.com/user/repo/repo.git file) at server.
