Hello @elias2500, disabling the Steam runtime is not supportable. If you run steam from a terminal, does the terminal spew give any hints?
Also, can you check if any 32 bit OpenGL application like glxinfo from a 32 bit build of mesa-utils works? Unfortunately, Ubuntu doesn't provide a 32 bit build of this package on 22.04, so maybe try unpacking https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/i386/mesa-utils/download with an archive utility and using the utility without installing it to the system.
UPDATE
Running steam by clicking the application icon from the "applications menu" started steam but didn't start the steam GUI. As a result when I ran:
steam
I got:
steam.sh[7394]: Running Steam on ubuntu 22.04 64-bit
steam.sh[7394]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
setup.sh[7464]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!
steam.sh[7394]: Steam client's requirements are satisfied
but when running:
steam
with the process killed, steam launches normally.
@kisak-valve Thanks for the comment! But cause I am not very advanced using ubuntu I don't know what any of this means:

Hi
is there any way to install those libs on Ubuntu 22.04:
libc6:i386
libegl1:i386
libgbm1:i386
libgl1-mesa-dri:i386
libgl1:i386
libnvidia-gl-470:i386
steam-libs-i386:i386 ?
on launch steam requests those libraries but it can install them
Thanks
Your system information
I clicked on the steam app icon and it did nothing. I then followed this. Reached the point of
and then :
You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libpipewire-0.3.so.0
And then: Failed to load steamui.so
Then found this there is no beta file or directory to delete.
What's next for me?
NOTE: Steam used to launch and i also was successful on installing and playing a game. This happened out of the blue.
