Error 117 normally has two causes from my experience:

- A firewall or other software blocking Spotify.

- An ISP blocking Spotify due to it's p2p connections.

Can you try:

- Uninstalling Spotify.

- Removing any Spotify entries from your firewalls (be sure to check any security software, Windows Firewall and your router firewall if you have one).

- Install Spotify again.

- Double check it is on the allowed lists in your firewalls. If you are using Windows Firewall, go to Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Allow a Program or Feature through Windows Firewall > Spotify > Tick Private and Public boxes.

Hello, i uninstalled and reinstalled spotify, but it solved nothing, and now, the software is blocked in the connection window. I know that it's nor the Windows firewall (i have the problem even if it's disabled) nor my ISP (i can domnwload p2p without problem). I don't know if my router have a firewall, but i doubt that it could blacklist spotify even if i did a simple update, abd oldest update don't gave me any problem.

I allowed the program in my firewall setting, but the problems still exists. How is this possible ?

Thaks for your help.

Hello, i solved the problem. The Bitdefender's firewall sucks and blocked all my softwares, even those added on the whitelist. So i use another firewall and now, it works perfectly.
