If you try to install GWX v3.0 then you have not chosen the right directory for the install. This is not chosen automatically.
For the record:
If the directory is wrong, or even empty(!), then the GWX-installer tells you not the truth in the english language install: "- Modded files were found."
The same in the german language install the Message is not fully correct, but more then in english version: "- GWX3.0 Dateien konnten nicht gefunden werden". Which means in english: GWX-files could not be found.
In contrary to the EN this is complete revered in meaning.
So try to find where Steam has installed your SH3, and chose this for the GWX-install.
Next part will be the "Large Adress Aware" or known as 4GB-patch.
If you have then problems running GWX i recommend reading some more about how to install and run SH3 on Steam. What to do in Win10. (Run as Administrator, in Win7 Compatibility mode).
Please read, as this pops up here regulary:
"propbeanie steam gwx site:subsim.com" <== put this phrase into Google
