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.

Sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t. I think Spotify has updated, and now has video ads that aren’t affected by EZBlocker.
But also, I will take this time to say THANK YOU for this. I use it daily and you are a legend.

When I’m using a local file from my pc on a spotify playlist, ezblocker detects it as an ad and mutes it, so every time a local file song comes on I have to manually unmute spotify and restart the song
Running latest version of Spotify and EZBlocker and EZBlocker keeps saying Spotify is paused or constantly says loading … when everything is playing and not blocking the ads.
Version D1.7.6 (April 22, 2020) is presenting the following problem: after a certain time of playback, commercials start appearing, so it’s time to close Spotify and EZBlocker and restart them again.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.6.0
Spotify Version: 0.9.15.27
Ezblocker displays spotify not found
It doesn’t block anything either which
sorta makes sense since it can’t find the program
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.6.0
Spotify Version: 1.1.58.820
With the new update, video ads that appear in spotify can still be played and heard and unable to be muted
