You won't have problems with steam, trust me ;) (i use EF + Steam CoH).

1)Install it over your company of heroes folder on steam.
2)Then run the launcher.
3)If you are prompted to update, do it, but check that the install path is the correct one for each update (5 in total).
4)After updating go to EF settings and check if CoH directory has the right path, if not fix it.
5)You can play EF.

I edited my previous post, please read it :). You only need to either paste/reinstall EF, change the path on the launcher settings if necessary, and if "unable to locate coh directory" error is shown, use the attached file.

That mean you added "C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes" as InstallLocation on the registry.

Is that path ok? Try to run the game.

Let's try this:

Uninstall Eastern Front. Use the EF uninstaller(unins000.exe), if EF files aren't deleted after this, delete them manually(you will easily recognize EF files) from Company of Heroes directory.

Reinstall Eastern Front v1.20.

After that update the game and make sure the install path is the correct one. After installing all the updates go to launcher settings and check that CoH Directory option be the correct one.
