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.

it’s muting music when choosing s different song
I use Sidify Music Converter to record and convert Spotify music without ads, and it adds the correct tags and album art.
Loaded right up (launched with admin permission), found spotify immediately and minimized to tray. I listen to obscure music so I don’t get that many ads in the first place. Will edit this before I post it so I can confirm it’s blocking ads on Win10 with latest version of EZBlocker & Spotify as of May 14th. Edit: Just got my first round of ads, they are indeed muted, and I have no received a banner ad either. Very nicely done by the developer, now if only there was a way to make the ad go 5X so the pauses… Read more »

Windows 10 Pro (with the latest updates)
I have checked the “open spotify with EZBlocker” option checked. Spotify launches fine but it says “spotify is paused” even when I’m playing music. I use the “run as administrator” option to launch EZBlocker
Saludos, la version 1.7.6 se lanza pero no localiza Spotify “Spotify no encontrado” tengo que abrirlo siempre manual, los anuncios los silencia pero no los corta como en versiones anteriores. Windows 10 Pro. Spotify 1.1.4.197. Muchas gracias por tu trabajo.

No longer mutes ads.
The ads are muting and stopping. I have to manually restart my music after I manually restart the ad.
When I run, the application doesn’t block ads. It allows at least one ad after a lot of skips. Please fix,
