Repaints sometimes disappear with a file verify. They are not default, so a verify will get rid of them, along with sounds and enhancements (lighting) mods. I always keep a backup of all my third party stuff in a folder in my Documents. That way, when Steam puts it all back to default, I can reinstall it all using Doc's cool little two step script.
But, you say, default engines? How many times did you do a verify? You may have to do it several times until it returns with no missing files. Plus, several other seem that Verify is broken.
OK, try this. Copy the "steamapps" folder to another spot on your hard drive. Uninstall and then reinstall the Steam client. _Paste that "steamapps" folder back in, it has all your games. Do a verify. See if that works for you.
