Download attached fixlist.txt file (end of reply) and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into.
NOTE. It's important that both FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt) or the folder it was ran from. Please post it to your reply.

If the only remaining issue is related to Steam then maybe re-installing is the best way forward. Probably worthwhile asking advice in a Steam Forum, I have no experience with Steam...

 

The following link offers advice on a reinstall: http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/530645446305521092/

 

Let me know the outcome...

 

Cheers,

 

Kevin
