Unsure what to do now
The top part of my steam has disappeared for some reason like the profile friends and community bit. I have already updated my graphics drivers but for some reason it is still not working please suggest anything that will fix my issue

I was able to fix my skin by editing the file uinavigatorpanel.layout and increasing the margin-top value of all of the page/views at the bottom of said file.

This value was previously set to 0, and for whatever the reason the update now results in menu appearing behind the pages/views.

These are the list of pages/views that were in my skin that I altered:

DownloadsPage
ScreenshotsPage
GamesPage_List
GamesPage_Details
GamesPage_Grid
WebPanel
BroadcastPage
BroadcastPageMin
BroadcastPageMinHoriz
ConsolePage
NewLibraryPage
MediaPage
ToolsPage
MusicPage_Details

wait so you have to change something on the skin file itself?

Yeah, the file I changed is uinavigatorpanel.layout in where you have your steam skins installed. For me it was:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\skins\{skin name}\resource

Example of one the things I changed:
"place" { "control" "WebPanel" "width" "max" "height" "max" "margin-top" "90" "margin-left" "-7" "margin-right" "0" "margin-bottom" "21" "start" "phonereminderbar" "dir" "down" }

before margin-top was set to 0. But after the update broke I increased it and I got my menu back.

I've set it to 90 because it looks nicer with my skin. But you might want to play around to see how it looks.

what kind of app do i need to open the uinavigatorpanel.layout file

Any text editor should work. Notepad will work.

Personally I use Notepad++ though. As it's cleaner/easier to read/edit.

Your skin might have other specific settings that are different to my skin(I've certainly made a bunch of other changes.) Posting the whole thing might and you just copy and paste mine might just mess even more up.

Just search the file for mentions of the pages above, look for top-margin under them and increase the value. The places you change should look like my code snippet.

Also you can always just change it back with ctrl-z if you think you mess something up.

You probably set the margin-top too large. I'd say somewhere around 50 to 90 is ideal.

so any margin-top value i should change it to a number between 50-90?

Confirmed that re-installing the app, then re-installing the skin fixed this issue.
