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

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 DLCs, you can later use the Koalageddon wizard to remove the platform integration for Steam. Like I said, Grid Autosport uses VAC, and I can't guarantee that Koalageddon won't trigger VAC, so I would disable VAC. To do this, add [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Command_Line_Options#Command-Line_Parameters -insecure] to your launch options for Grid Autosport. Right-click Grid Autosport in your Steam library, select Properties, and in the General section, add '''-insecure''' under the text "Advanced users may choose to enter modifications to their launch options." This may prohibit multiplayer if Codemasters doesn't offer VAC-free multiplayer servers, but you will still be able to play singleplayer.

You can quickly test if the DLC content has been enabled in-game. From the Main Menu, go to Custom Cup, change Vehicle Discipline to Party Mode, and Demoman Derby should now be a selectable option for Vehicle Class.
