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.

Hello,
I’m having following PC setup:
– Windows 10 64bit Version 1809 (Enterprise)
– Net-Frame-Work 3.5 / 2.0
EZBlock is muting spotify at start and from time to time during playback, especially when I click somewhere in spotify, it muting immediately , why?
Thanks in advance!
EZBlocker started to crash yesterday out of the blue.
Last time it crashed on me it was an older version and it happened when it lost connection to the update server. Is this the case now too? Spotify did not update on me as I made it impossible for it.
Right, it does not crash on start, but rather randomly 10 to 20 minutes later.
Doesn’t even consistently mute ads anymore
Not working as of July 19 2019 so Spotify must have changed something. Guess if I have to listen to ads I’ll just listen to the radio.
Not working
need update, sometimes blocking sometimes not blocking
in the last few days the spotify playlist often stops and cannot play many songs, is it related with EZBlocker? Thanks
no funciona con la ultima versión de spotify 17/Jul/2019, se detiene la música a los 7 segundos, y si se borra la linea en el HOSTS corre la música pero los anuncios aparecen y no se puede escuchar toda la música, saludos.
