Me too. It started yesterday morning.

"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive..."

I have this same error, too. It started yesterday and is still happening. Spotify works but I can't get that error box to go away without closing Spotify completely.

Re: error message...Finally got the window to close

After it had been running for about an hour, I got the error message window to close. It never affected the use of Spotify. Hopefully they corrected the issue!

May I join the club? Mystified but without a solution

Hey all in this thread!

I might have a solution for you, try these steps:

Go to Start > Click On Run > Type "Regedit" > Click OK
Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows\
Change the value of the ErrorMode key to 2

In your situation CSRSS.EXE (Microsoft Client Server Subsystem) may attempt to locate media which don't exist

I have been having the same error message as well. And the error message will only go away once I have closed Spotify. I tried Martin's solution and it worked. Thanks so much Martin!!

This didn't work for me. I don't have the final folder in the line you desribe. Mine only goes to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\

After that the only remaining folder is- Print

No- Windows folder after that.

Any suggestions?

Hello @jhamptonia, that's really odd.

Can you provide a screenshot, to see what is there?

These folders are Windows standard folders, and should be there, try to restart your computer and see if there is any difference. If not, I assume it's something related to your Windows version.

If you didn't find the folder anyway, you can try to re-install Spotify, as this usually helps for many ongoing issues, thanks!

I've attached a screenshot. I've tried restarting the computer. I've tried uninstalling Spotify and reinstalling it. Nothing is working so far. Help me Obi-wan, you're my only hope~
