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.
In addition to my previous comment (Spotify not found and thus not launched on EZBlocker startup) the current version (1.7.6) doesn’t seem to block ads.
Windows 8.1
Spotify v1.1.31.703
Using EZBlocker v1.7.6 on Windows 8.1 x64
It doesn’t load Spotify as previous versions did (last one I used was 1.7.3) and keeps saying
“Spotify not found”. Tried both normal and “as administrator” launch – same result.
Please fix this.
Hello and thanks a lot for your work!
Some ads are not muted. Ex : the one for Carrefour is allways played but other ads are muted. any idea why?
The adblocker seems to be not working.. It did not block an ad. The sound still came, did not mute and so on. But atleast I haven’t seen a banner ad!
it still played the video ad even if EZblocker was open
