Hello @Yakoot, please give #9383 a read and check if that's the issue you're seeing.
yes, looks the same, but nothing helped
switched to flatpak version, it works
I was having this issue as well, but I saw some complaints about my gtk theme (which I had recently changed) in my steam logs. I reset my gtk theme back to the defaults and then retried starting steam and it worked. Once steam started once I was able to go back to my usual gtk theme and start steam normally.
Who knows if what I did actually fixed the issue, but it might be worth a try.
maybe dupe of https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11429 ?
can you check your steam logs
maybe dupe of #11429 ?

I saw some errors about gtk theme css syntax but switch to default theme did not help
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
The Steam client is trying to start infinitely; a blank Steam window appears, followed by a blank ad window, which then closes after a second. They restart after a few seconds, and this cycle continues. There's an icon in the system tray, but I can't launch anything through it. I tried deleting all Steam directories, uninstalling and reinstalling it, but the issue persists.
