Re: Can't reinstall/uninstall Spotify on Windows 7 64-bit

I can't think why that might be - have you tried running it both as an administrator (right click the Spotify icon and select this) and in compatibility mode (right click menu > properties > compatibility)?

Do you know where Spotify installed to? And where are you running it from? It might make a difference if you're launching from the desktop or start menu etc.

Something to try is to launch Spotify directly from a Facebook play link. Try for example https://www.facebook.com/music/song/One-More-Time/10150185528350179

Odd that - did the play link above not help at all?

Does everything else on your computer work well? You don't seem to be doing anything wrong. That said, making sure you've got all the Windows updates and so on is something worth checking (even when you don't have an issue, really).

fxel123, when was the last time you reinstalled Spotify? And when you did so, did you delete all Spotify folders and files on your computer?
