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.

When I am playing a song (with Ezblocker enabled) ad start in the middle of the song
Thanks for continuing to update this! Spotify seems to have made a sneaky way to get around the ad-blocking for video ads. It opens up a second instance of the application, dedicated just to the audio of video ads. If you open volume mixer, you can see them side by side. It’s not a big problem – when the first one comes, I just use the shortcut on EZBlocker to open the volume mixer and mute the instance of spotify that had ad audio manually, and the video ads stay muted until I quit spotify.

this software is very good but when route spotify to another audio device it stops working because it works only on primary audio device. how can i route EZBlocker too?
“Spotify not found”, or “spotify is paused”
Ads are not muted, because Spotify has two different volume controls and only one is muted but the advertising comes out the other which remains active
how do i uninstall it
