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.

Suddenly, whenever I launch EZ blocker, my Spotify crashes, and has to be re-installed. The progress bar/song length does not show up, and for instance the song won´t play. Spotify will still play some of the “Recently played” songs, but not any new songs I look up for through the search bar. Even though it will find the album/song, it won´t play it, and the song time progress bar won´t show up. I tried uninstalling both Spotify and EZ blocker, and then re-install most recent versions of both of them, but it keeps happening. Spotify will work just fine, until… Read more »

If I pause playback it mutes Spotify and doesn’t unmute it when I resume playback on win7 (with framework 4.5). Also Ezblocker tends to crash when I pause. I constantly need to restart Ezblocker and manually unmute Spotify. Works perfectly if I keep playing without pausing.
