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.

Trying to download the latest version, after uninstalling as ads were getting through and wasnt working properly for a few days, but now the .exe won’t launch and can’t actually runt he program anymore
Awesome little program! Been using it for quite some time now, and hasn’t even loaded any ad up until the latest version of Spotify got released. Unfortunately the last EZblocker version doesn’t work as it used to be with the older ones. Keep up the good work though!
permaloading with v1.6.5.0 too
Hi Eric. I’m experiencing problems with v1.5.1.4 & v1.6.5.0.
Running W10 1511, Spotify 1.0.28.87.g8f9312a4.
”EZBlocker has stopped working” displays instantly.
Thank you
Ken
Unfortunately, this still isn’t working for me. What do i do?
EZBlocker updated again. Should have fixed the errors w/ updating, the stuck at loading, and dependency issues.
I love you. Working completely fine now: no admin problem updating the program and no loading bug (playing feature is working). Just listened to a couple of songs and no ads by now. Thank you.
Its really great how you offer this for free and you keep updating. I have all the respect in the world for you. Thanks so much.
I’ve got the permaloading, plus the error that John described is repeated 731 times in the log.
Yeah for some reason it’s not working for me. It shows an error and then after it starts it just says “Loading….” on the bottom left where the song feed should show up. Sound ads still play.
Same here.
