Installer installing itself after opening computer.

unclerk — Thu, 02 Mar 2023 17:05:19 GMT

Plan

Free

Country

Turkey

Operating System

Windows 10

spotify version -> 1.2.6.863.ge7902f05

After opening my computer up, installer (even though i don't have it installed) starts downloading spotify even when there's no update. After i close the installer spotify seems downloaded fully with no corruptions. (even though i close the installer halfway downloading) I tried a clean reinstall, looked for viruses but this still seems unsolved.

Could you please provide a screenshot of the installer you keep seeing?

Thanks

Same installer you see when downloading spotify. In task manager it looks like the normal installer running. I’ll take a photo when it appears, i didn’t mention above but it sometimes appears.

If a clean install doesn't help, you could install the version from the Microsoft Store.

High chance that will work, but microsoft store one was problematic to me and that was why i changed to installer one. Not gonna lie im looking forward to leave spotify.

I've actually had better luck with the one from the MS Store. What problems were you having that made you switch to the x64 version?
