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.

It happens exactly the same.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.3.0
Spotify Version: 1.0.95.289
EZBlocker almost always mutes the music too on startup. I have to manually unmute Spotify in Window’s mixer. Works after that
same here, and ezblocker doesnt block ads anymore. we need a new version
theres a issue spotify just updated there client & now EZBlocker doesnt block the ads anymore can you please fix this?
Same issue here – might be specific to Spotify being the version coming from the Windows Store (the desktop exe no longer able fully open – just has three dots in the corner when launched with EZBlocker)
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.2.5
Spotify Version: 1.0.95.289
Recently changed hard drives, and re-installed both Spotify and EZBlocker – doesn’t seem to work anymore. Previously, it would skip every ad without fail for completely uninterrupted music, but now it only manages to mute some of them.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.3.0 (have tried several)
Spotify Version: 1.0.95.289
Downgrade to the previous version where the ez blocker works. hoe this helps
EZBlocker doesn t work after reinstalling spotify
Hi Eric, great work with EZBlocker, but in the latest versions it leaves spotify with gray screen, it only shows the 3 points on the left side and does not let you play absolutely anything. After a reinstallation of the spotify, it works correctly, but it is to activate EZBlocker again and it returns to the same state.
Spotify version: 1.0.95.289.g342899da
EZBlocker: v1.7.3.0
Please review what is happening, because many of us use it every day and we can not reproduce absolutely nothing 🙁
use the windows store version
Same problem here.
How do you deactivate or uninstall EZ-Blocker? If I move the folder out it keeps blocking ads (it is working for me but I might go Premium…)
