Broke my GTA IV

A few days ago i got GTA IV on steam, played it for a few hours, really enjoyed it. Looked up car mods and got the real life car pack of a well known mod site, installed it, started up and said this version is not supported. There was literally no way to uninstall the mod no matter what, it was an installer and didnt come with an uninstaller, i tried deleting all the files, and last night i deleted every single game file and re-downloaded via steam which took 8 hours, why the hell do i still get a pop up telling me unsupported version of the game when the mod isnt installed and i completely re downloaded every file?

Any suggestions to try?

Tried doing an “Verify Integrity of Game Files” ?

yep tried, i would advise people against downloading this http://www.gtagaming.com/downloads/gta-iv/vehicle-mods/4510 unless you are running an old version of the game, i dont think im going to be able to play now, will have to download the episodes and play them instead.

yeah i have, heres a screenshot of what comes up

If the game still wont work even after i've deleted every file and redownloaded the whole game, maybe something was installed in the registry like beerbaron said?
