I deleted a few folders in the Victoria 2 folder in Documents in the hope that it would download automatically if I uninstalled and reinstalled from Steam. This didnt happen. Any help?

If the folders were graphics and music then those are recreated when you start the game (they are a cache to let V2 load things faster, there's nothing in them that isn't in your main installation directory). If the folders were mods and saves then those are gone forever.

You could try validating game integrity on steam. Victoria II properties then go to Local Files and finally should be last button to fix the game.
