Steam fatal error Could not load module 'bin/FileSystem_stdio.dll' HELP!

When I try to load steam, it comes up with the message above. How do I load steam? Am I missing a file?

The filesystem_stdio.dll file might have been corrupted or deleted by a failed Steam upgrade or other install process, perhaps because of a Windows restart. Reinstall Steam

The quick way to solve such stuff:
Delete everything except Steam.exe and SteamApps in your Steam folder and doubleclick that Steam.exe. See if it helps.

much easier way is to delete a certain file and restart steam and it will notice it isnt there and so it redownloads all files
