Had this for the past two days now, happened when I cleared all my cache, cookies and everything etc using CCleaner.
I've tried all these options: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2117-ILZV-2837
Yet none seem to work.
However when i try to perform the steps Enable Kernel Integrity or Enable DEP the command prompt says element not found? So I'm guessing this may be the issue but how do I fix it.

The commands that you enter are supposed to delete some system flags. But they have already been deleted in your case which is why it is saying not found.
I got this problem yesterday after I updated to Windows 8.1. I tried the fix in dflame's post and it worked temporarily but then the same thing cropped up again a few minutes later.
Not sure what the solution is.

I've had the same problem, i followed that guide and now the problem seems to be fixed. Be sure you're running the cmd prompt as administrator, what SO are you running btw? (i'm using W 8.1)

Same thing for me yesterday, cropped up again today. Just played a pickup also where the guy was having the same issue. Must be something on steams end not ours?

Well, gonna just tell you what i did. It got fixed for me after deleting the appcache folder (Which can be found in the main steam directory). Seems to work fine for me, few days already passed.

Having this problem as well. Tried everything on steam support and listed by users.... Just noticed it yesterday for the first time, has been happening ever since.
I tried joining servers in csgo as well and got the error "Not connected to matchmaking servers"
edit:
This seemed to have fixed it!!
edit2:
Next day... the error is back :/
dflamealec_dflameEDIT: Also, I've been looking around for the last 15 minutes or so and some guy said to follow these instructions:
1. delete everything in the steam installation location except for "steam.exe" and the "steamapps" folder.
2. restart you pc
3. run steam from the installation folder (you could try running this as an administrator even though he didn't say to in his instructions), not from the desktop shortcut. (an update will be downloaded)
4. verify the integrity of the game cache

Kind of relevant, if anyone uses Glasswire to track bandwidth usage, that breaks VAC and can cause this.

Close steam and delete steamclient.dll
when you open steam again, it's gonna update and download the file and the problem should most definitely be gone.

Deleting steamclient.dll did nothing. I'm running out of things to try at this point :/
Any help?

this was a reoccurring issue for me as well
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2117-ILZV-2837&l=english
basically had to do everything in that post and now its gone for me, those are the only things that actually worked the steamclient.dll did nothing at all, verifying game cache doesn't help either your best bet is just to put all those commands in run one at a time, (do one then restart etc) but dont load tf2/steam yet when you do reboot

Did every step, with restarts after each where its noted. Jumped on a server, played for less than 5 minutes before I was kicked with the same message :(
