The repository UUID is stored inside the working copy, so it doesn't
matter if you reinstalled TortoiseSVN or not.

You can change the URL a working copy is "attached to" with the relocate
command, but as far as I know the new repository location must have a
different name.

In the worst case you'll have to get a fresh working copy from your new
repository.
