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.

You’re the man! Thx for that great little software
thx so muuuuuuuchhhh dudeu you’re great !!
I started using it but no ad get blocked. Should I keep both programs, Spotify and EZBlocker open at the same time without minimizing isnt it ?
Apart from that. Here in Australia, there some ads that continues coming despite I pressed the “add currect ad… ”
Honestly for me is not working really good or Im doing something wrong.
Any help ?
Thanks M
Me too!! Can you help us Eric??
Use an older version. The newest version 1.0 and above doesn’t always work with EZBlocker. Version 0.9.xxx is recommended. Go here to keep Spotify from updating:

Hi Eric! I know this is small thing to do when you know how to. I’ve been using your program I dont even know how long. I really like it & it makes listening to Spotify so much easier. Thank you! I would like to get “Now playing” in your app on top of the buttons! Would that be possible?
