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.

EZB says Spotify not found and it doesnt mute the ads unfortunatly 🙁

its not muting, could be that ive got different audio setups (voicemeeter pulls spotify separatly and plays into my headphones, sometimes into my mic)
figured out more of the issue, ez is blocking the ad from playing on the default audio source, not spotify’s audio source. i have two audio sources, a and b, i have desktop audio routed to a and spotify to b, ads play, but if desktop and spotify are both a (or both b) then ads dont play

Had to format my computer. Installed everything from scratch and EZBlocker doesn’t work anymore : Spotify not found. Multiple restarts in different orders don’t seem to have any impact.
I found out how to circumvent my problem. I read on another forum about differences between installing from the Windows directly, or through Spotify’s website. The later makes EZBlocker work again!

Runs late for about 5 seconds of at least most songs that play after ads.
