If i were you -
Uninstall kerbal in steam - Go to the steam apps/common file and find and delete the kSP folder there too. Then try reinstalling via steam.

There's another possibility that you can find a 0byte file or folder which you can delete and try again. I can't remember the specifics.

I get disk read errors when I buy my HDDs from Southern Digital.

...I'll see myself out.
