EZBlocker is currently un-supported.
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.
If you run into any issues, comment below in detail the issue you're having.

works amazing, jeez thanks
Hi Eric,
i used filehorse to install older Versions of Spotify (with Spotify 1.0.92.390 everything worked well). But since a few days/weeks Spotify always updates on the newest version (Spotify 1.0.95.289) even though i created the two empty Files Spotify_new.exe & Spotify_new.exe.sig (with read only). It seems that spotify created a new way to force people to update. And if that happens whether there are advertisments again (the sign “EZBlocker” is gone in the desctop app and replaced by the normal sign “Update) or the black screen with the three dots…
Spotify loads normally with ezblocker, but the spotify advertisments (sound) are not blocked anymore. Before i had the same Problem like Ayoub
“When I launch EZBlocker, Spotify launches too but it gets stuck in a black screen with the three dots in the upper left hand side. I don’t have this problem when I launch Spotify w/o EZBlocker. ”
I reinstalled Spotify und updated EZblocker and it started normally but the advertisment sounds were not blocked anymore.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.3.0
Spotify Version: 1.0.94.262
I have a problem when I launch EZBlocker, a Microsoft.NET Framework pops out. EZBlocker does not work.
I love EZBlocker but it’s not working anymore. So is there a fix planned for the issue everyone is facing? I mean the issue that a hundred people below reported 2 weeks ago? Thanks for the otherwise awesome software!
