Lately I have been having issues going into Team Fortress 2. It will show that team fortress 2 is preparing to launch and then close. I heard from a certain useless member that restarting steam might help. However, said member failed to mention how to do so. So I looked around on the internet to find out how to restart steam. All attempts have been a fail. Some sources were trolls, viruses (no I did not fall for those), outdated, or involved me going into files and or taking many hours to do so. How do I restart steam in a quick and easy way that does not involve me digging through many files? I am not exactly good with computers and I am still figuring mine out. So please keep it simple.

Restarting Steam simply refers to closing Steam and opening it again. To do this, click on 'Steam' in the top right corner then click 'Exit'.
Once Steam has closed, start it again by clicking on Steam in the start menu or double clicking the desktop icon.
