For example, if DepotDownloader is located at %USERPROFILE%\Downloads\depotdownloader-2.4.7\, then in Command Prompt enter <code>cd /d %userprofile%\downloads\depotdownloader-2.4.7</code>. Change the path if you extracted DepotDownloader to a different location.

The default download location is a subdirectory named '''depots''' in the depotdownloader directory. Continuing with the previous example, that would be %USERPROFILE%\Downloads\depotdownloader-2.4.7\depots\. If you wish to specify a different download location, you will need to add '''-dir''' followed by the location of your choosing to the previous command.

You will be prompted for your Steam password. Once you have entered your password, if you have Steam Guard turned on, you will be prompted to enter your 2FA code. If you haven't secured your Steam account with Steam Guard, you really should.

Once the download is finished, you can verfiy that everything has been downloaded by selecting both the the '''cars''' and '''download''' directories  (using the previous example, these two directories would be located in %USERPROFILE%\Downloads\depotdownloader-2.4.7\depots\255238\4011980\share\data\) and then pressing '''Alt'''+'''Enter''' on your keyboard or right-clicking them and selecting '''Properties''' from the context menu. There should be 627 files and 713 folders, and the size should be 4.62 GB. You can also restart Steam once DepotDownloader has completed.

Copy the '''cars''' and '''download''' directories you just downloaded over to your Steam installation of Grid Autosport (e.g., %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Steam\steamapps\common\GRID Autosport\). Windows will prompt you to confirm that you want to merge the directories. Select '''Yes'''. If you don't plan on using DepotDownloader again, you can delete it, and you can uninstall Microsoft .NET Runtime 6.0 (e.g., 6.0.14) if you don't have any other applications that use Microsoft .NET Runtime 6.0 (i.e., if you only installed it to run DepotDownloader).

You will still need to download and install [https://github.com/acidicoala/Koalageddon Koalageddon]. Once installed, run the Koalageddon wizard to install the platform integration for Steam. If you ever uninstall Grid Autosport, and thus no longer need to access the free DLC, you can later use the Koalageddon wizard to remove the platform integration for Steam. Like I said, I haven't tried Grid Autosport multiplayer while using Koalageddon out of concern it might trigger VAC, and when I use Koalageddon for singleplayer, I add [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Command_Line_Options#Command-Line_Parameters -insecure] to my launch options for Grid Autosport in order to disable VAC.
