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.

The software works perfectly, I just have one question…
Can you mod the quality of the stream to Extreme? Like in the Android Mod App.

Ever since October, EZblocker just won’t work anymore for me. (It runs, but it won’t mute the ads) I have .NET Framework 4.5 installed and everything is checked to work, but nothing. I run Windows 10 Pro. Any idea why I can’t get it to work?

Dear Eric, thank you very much for this very useful piece of software! Unfortunately, I have the following problem: While EZBlocker is running, one of the three Spotify.exe processes uses about 12 to 16% (that means: far too much) of my CPU power – permanently, even if Spotify is paused. As soon as I terminate EZBlocker, the CPU usage of the process goes back to normal (about 2%). Do you have any idea how this can be fixed?
