If you applied for the Civil Service Exam last year but didn't appeared for any paper, it will not be counted as an attempt. Until and unless a candidate write at least one paper of civil service exam, it is not counted as an attempt.

Since you are from General Category, you have still got 4 attempts left to qualify the Civil Service Exam conducted by the Union Public Service Commission as the maximum number of attempts allowed for candidates belonging to general category is Four and for OBC category, it is Seven.
For candidates from Sc/St category do not have such restrictions and could write the exam as many times they need to qualify the exam till the age of 35 years.

Yes, it will be counted as you enrolled for the examination. It does not matter whether you gave exam or not.
