You should know where your SH5.exe is located. That's where you should direct your mod installation...

When you start game after installing TWoS, what happens? How do you start game exactly, with a shortcut on desktop? After starting, can you see the intro image labeled:
"The Wolfes of Steel" ?

If only the stock game starts as you say, you must have another folder with the game files, a double install. Delete the game shortcut on your desktop, then go into the Steam folder (where you say you have installed TWoS). Inside you should see 7 different folders, 1 with the name TWoS_Parts, exact? Find the SH5.exe and create a shortcut to desktop. Then double-click this shortcut with Admin Rights to start game. If this is all correct I don't think you will start the stock game...

Sure you read everything in the install tutorial PDF?
From my experience only about 10 % manage to read an entire tutorial guide. (worked with IT support).

Try reading it again. You might have skipped some important info.
