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.

Since today, my virus scanner detects EZ blocker as a virus, and the redownloading of the exe file fails.
Where are the instructions for compiling the code by oneself?

thats a long way around. Just configure your Av to ignore this file or see it as safe. Unless you want to scan the source code in which case ask Eric for it.

The new video adds on Spotify aren’t blocked.

Hi hi! My ezblocker always shows that spotify is paused, but it’s not, so it doesn’t block the ads. What can I do?

Try taking it off of “Private Session” – took me forever to figure this out.

Several good antivirus programs (like G Data and Bitdefender) think EZBlocker.exe is a malware… Why?

Hi! I have a question: when i download the latest releas of EZBlocker my anti-virus (f-secure) detects a trojan. Is this a false positive? The older version works without any problems.

FYI
I noticed after using Spotify Web Player + Adblock Edge for a day(no ads at all) my ads are blocked in Spotify Program Win 8.1 64 bit + EZBlocker. Befor EZBlocker didn’t blocked some of them. The longer I have heard the more they came. 2 days without hearing an ad at the moment

Seems like recently, EZBlocker doesn’t enable block banner ad by default, and even with it manually enabled, banners aren’t blocked

Same for me. I’m using Windows 8.1.
