Hi,
I had an error with Falmouth Branch which I purchased from Steam this evening. I uninstalled it with the package manager, but now I can't seem to get it back. Any hints for a RW newbie please?
Cheers!

In the C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps folder there should be a .ncf file referencing it. Delete this, log out of Steam, log back in and it should start to re-download.

Doesn't seem to have worked I'm afraid
It hasn't started redownloading when I go back into Steam.

Then you can use another function in Steam. Right click on RW, select properties and go to the "local files" tab. There is a button "verify game cache integrity". This will check your installation for all missing and erroneous files.
Also I experienced a problem with uninstalling a Steam addon with the package manager: it deleted not all the files and the folder still was in place. So you should go to your routes folder and delete the one for Falmouth yourself, as I don't have it I can't tell you the exact name of it, but maybe someone else will do *hinthint* Otherwise the above process may fail or you will need to run it twice.
