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.
There is a problem with the app on win 10. Spotify creates 2 volume controls called “Spotify” and “Spotify Free”. When an ad starts playing the “Spotify” volume goes to zero, but the “Spotify Free” volume control changes it’s name to the name of the clip that you are listening to and plays the ad at normal volume.
Not working anymore after the newest version update in Win 11
Not working since two days ago, says that “Spotify is not found.” Thought it was just my upgrade to windows 11, but it says it should be compatible with windows 11.
it doesn’t work. I’m still hearing the ads.
is it not working anymore? program says Spotify not found since today
It doesn’t stop the ads, it just doesn’t have noise, so I will be listening to music and it just goes blank for 30 – 90 seconds.
Please do something with “EZBlocker preventing windows from shutdown.” So annoying. It is able to start EZBlocker on login but not shut it down when shutting down the PC?
hmm can you remove this box other then that every thing works fine
