Steam doesn't download the whole game for ARK
Hi, I've been trying to download ARK and for some reason, when it completes the download I try to play it but it says missing executable. After looking for an answer for the past 5 days, I looked in the game files and saw that whenever I installed ARK, it only downloads 2 folders, which doesn't include the game at all. Could someone please point me in the direction I need to go, or if I didn't include enough info, just ask and I will post it here. (p.s: I've already tried switching download locations, wifi, and verifying game cache)

Yes, the problem is that ARK is a 64bit only game. You are trying to download the game on an 32bit windows. Then it only downloads the 32bit files of the package, most likely DirectX and other files like that.
