EZBlocker is a simple-to-use ad blocker/muter for Spotify. EZBlocker will attempt to block ads on Spotify from loading. If an ad does load, EZBlocker will mute Spotify until the ad is over.

There are no fancy features, just pure ad blocking. When an ad is blocked, only Spotify is muted, so no other sounds will be affected. EZBlocker aims to be the most stable and reliable ad blocker for Spotify.

There's no setup required - just drag it into any folder and run. To upgrade your EZBlocker, simply replace the executable file.

FAQ

Why is my Spotify is permanently muted?
There may be issues with EZBlocker muting Spotify on your computer. You can manually modify your Spotify's volume by opening the Volume Mixer.

How do I block banner ads?
Check the "Block Banner Ads" box to enable banner blocking. Enabling and disabling this feature requires you to run EZBlocker with administrator privileges.

Does EZBlocker block video commercials?
EZBlocker will mute videos but not prevent them from playing. If you don't want video ads, make sure you keep your Spotify minimized.

Why does my anti-virus say EZBlocker is a virus?
The latest version of EZBlocker may be picked up by a few anti virus programs. This is most likely due to the way EZBlocker disables Spotify's ads. If you do not feel comfortable downloading the executables directly, feel free to view the source code and compile it yourself.

How do I donate?
I don't accept donations for EZBlocker. I would rather you spend your money on Spotify Premium. If Spotify Premium isn't offered in your region, I suggest donating to a non-profit such as the Tor Project.

Is EZBlocker open source?
Yes it is, and I encourage all to contribute. The source & technical description is available on Github.

It stopped working when I upgraded to latest, even after downgrading back. It’s stuck at “loading…”.

When I opened this page to post my 1st message, it only showed the June version available, so I thought that that was still the current version. It now shows the new 1.6.8.2 version. I have installed it, and the problems have all disappeared. Thank you so much for all your hard work; and generosity with this. My wife and I have enjoyed it so much over the last year.

Stopped muting ads, when Spotify updated itself, today, 9/7/2016. EZBlocker perpetually says that it is loading, and never gets beyond that point. I only have the Mute box checked, nothing else. Windows 8.1

Looks like my Spotify did an update today, and now EZBlocker stays in “loading…” all the time, no muting anymore. Has anybody found a workaround?

I thought it might be Windows Defender, since that automatically turns itself on now every few hours and I never used it before, but turning it off makes no difference. The EZBlocker client simply says “Loading..” and never changes.
