Hello! You can try using a bootable USB or a recovery tool to restore your GTA V installation from the old OS. This should let Steam recognize the previous version without re-downloading it. Let me know if you need more details! Thank you!
Yes, if you put GTA 5 in the Steam library installation folder, Steam will recognize it when you try to install there, checking the existing files instead of fetching a fresh copy, which should be quicker. However, this verification could take some time and might require Steam to download new files. Hope this clears things up.
I managed to locate a solution. Just started the Steam from my previous operating system.
