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.

I have a big problem. i have used ezblocker for a few years now and it worked well most of the time. but lately i had issues, that spotify wouldnt play/load a few songs, which increased over time. Now spotify doesnt even play any song anymore. Neither does it load the album cover or the song name in the bottom left corner. I tried to uninstall ezblocker but even after removing it, it is still blocking everything. spotify ads, spotify songs, even ads in the browser. i cant get rid of it, because i removed all ezblocker related files, i… Read more »
If you can’t play any song, it’s because there is a text line in your windows host file that blocks connection to the server. Just remove it.
spotify doesnt work at all. It says ”This playlist is currently empty” ”Find more of the music you love among our New Releases” and theres nothing too

doesn’t block adds on win 10, it seemed to work but does not now
Everytime i start Spotify it’s always muted in the Volume Mixer, doesn’t matter if it’s a song or Ad, everytime i have to go unmute it manually and only then the Blocker works properly

Well, I think those crafty cunts at Spotify finally figured out a way to simply mute all audio if EZblocker is detected. The cat has officially bested the mouse…for now.
Seems like if spotify detects any adblocker now (ublock or ez) it shuts itself down
