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.
It happens to me all the time that ads arent blocked until I restart the EZBlocker. Also, it doesn’t save the setting “Block Banner Ads”. I’m already running it in Admin mode. Win7x64
Same problems here.
Are banners still getting blocked? If not, check the new update.
Just updated to your latest version after the old one stopped working. Works like a charm again! Thanks!
Thanks, man!!!
Just leaving some love. Thanks for keeping up with this. It’s really nice to be able to relax with some new music without having corporations prodding me for my patronage relentlessly.
Hey man!
Probably the spotify team have changed something with the new update. I using the version 1.0.1.1060.gc75ebdfd and it isn’t working anymore. I’m running windows 7 by the way.
Hope you can figure it out.
Read the OP and download the latest version…
I had the same problem, just restart Spotify and it’ll work again.. like a charm <3
Thanks Eric for all your work n_n
Yesterday the blocker was fine but today it’s no longer useful, what happened?
Is there any way to “Add current” to list of ads to block? It is missing some of the ads and I don’t see the button that used to be there to block them.
I was about to post the same question.
Nice one!
I can enjoy Spotify again 😉
Cheers!
