PL/SQL Developer is not an Oracle product. Some people here may know how to configure it with a database connection, but you might get faster response if you go to the product's support site.

I think you have to search in the former installation a file name tnsnames.ora and copy it in the new installation directory.

I prefer using TNS_ADMIN environment variable which points to a single TNSNAMES.ORA file, and maintain all databases I connect to within that TNSNAMES.ORA. See this message in "TNS admin method" topic.
