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.
If you run into any issues, comment below in detail the issue you're having.
The latest version didn’t block the Topsify ad for me, other than that it’s running smooth as always 🙂
EZBlocker won’t find my spotify for some reason
Info:
Spotify version: 1.0.28.87
EZBlocker version : 1.6.6.0
error message in log:
Spotify process not found
WebHelperHook: The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine
Thank you EZ! It’s very interesting that you’re the only dev working on such a tool.
Thanks brother make life a little more enjoyable, and your considerable effort, that God will reward with health and prosperity and, Heartfelt thanks
Is there a chance to make it run on startup without the icon on system tray?
You can just create a shortcut and put it in the start folder. Or make a service.
I hope they update it soon.
Obviously the new version is not working. I reinstalled the previous version 1.5.1.4 which blocks fine the Audio Ads as well as the banners (almost, leaves a black banner space)
There is no difference between them. The logic is the same except the latest version has added blocking.
Version 1.6.5.0 no longer work brother 🙁 Please update
