Go here:

Download the Steam installer.

Install it to the exact same location that your Steam is currently installed to.

DO NOT DELETE ANY FILES... YET!

Try this and let me know how it goes:

Short version:
On Windows

Restart Steam
If the issue persists, exit Steam, rename your ClientRegistry.blob, and restart Steam. The ClientRegistry.blob can be found in your Steam installation directory. C:\Program Files\Steam by default.
If the issue still persists, you may have issues with your local Steam files. You may refresh these files without deleting your game files. Please follow this process to refresh your Steam files:
Exit Steam
Navigate to your Steam installation directory. (C:\Program Files\Steam\ by default.)
Delete everything in that directory EXCEPT the following:
steam.exe
steamapps directory (All of Steam's game files are kept here.)
Restart Steam to test the issue

Checksum mismatches may be caused by faulty or overclocked components.

Test your PCs hardware integrity.

Just rename the .blobs and delete everything except the EXE and SteamApps folder.

It might not exist, just delete EVERYTHING EXCEPT:
- STEAM.EXE
- STEAMAPPS FOLDER.

Then run the Steam installation again.
