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.

there is a new version for download this week and it works fine. just install and restart computer
no it doesnt
Where is it?
the experimental adblock funktion don’t work here since 1.6.5.0
İts not working pls new version ://
The latest version of your mod doesn’t seem to be working for me either, it seems to block most ads but it still doesn’t block all audio ads or banner ads, some still come through. Just letting you know.
After using for more than a year. It started to let the ads play, it’s like i dont have EZblocker installed. The ads play and i have to restart client and enable EZblocker again so i can at least listen to music for an hour without getting ads….
The program is designed to run always when Spotify is open. But the program modifies your HOSTS-file, preventing that Spotify can connect to the ad-servers even when EZBlocker is not running. Since the last Spotify update (this was an automatic update, Spotify installed it without asking you), they added new ad-servers. This is the reason why ads are now playing again (sometimes, because most servers are still blocked).
Appreciate the work Eric, but not currently supported for latest Spotify!
I was working perfectly back then. But lately there are still ads, just no sound. Can you work on a newer version, you have my full support.
The ads are back… they use to be gone. what happened?? :c
Spotify retaliated through their code, that’s what happened.
