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 says ‘spotify not found’. I used this app before so not sure why it’s not working anymore.

When I minimize Spotify, EzBlocker mutes it. Doesn’t happen if EzBlocker is not open.

[…] Download and install EZBlocker on your computer. Make sure that you run Windows 10/11, or Windows 7/8 with .NET […]

Update on my post (Keith 4 minutes ago)

After the user sign-out and sign-in, EZBlocker does launch Spotify, but then is still unable to detect it.

Spotify not found.

EZBlocker is unable to launch Spotify (or detect an already running instance) even when EZBlocker is ran as admin.

EZBlocker Version: 1.8.1.0
Spotify Version: 1.1.73.517

Standard fresh Windows 10 Pro installation with Spotify installed in C:\Users\x\AppData\Roaming\Spotify

No custom permissions in the system.
