Hey @Asy_Irwin,

Welcome to Spotify Community!

Can you give us more details about the issue ( what is exactly wrong,error dialogs etc.. )?

Hi @Asy_Irwin,

try using the full installer package: http://download.spotify.com/Spotify%20Installer.exe and let me know if it works.

It has solved some similar issues with Windows 10 users.

Hi again.
Every time I open Spotify this is what happens [screenshot atached]
It just stays like this, nothing happens next
I'm confused
I re-installed it multiple times, but it's pointless

This WORKED!

Jesus finally - other posts talked about updating driver software/re-installing/unchecking high quality streaming.

Nothing worked until this.

Thank you!

I got even the old version to work on my Windows 10 laptop just by clicking on the executable.

I need the old version to copy-paste playlists into excel by artist-title, and it's also more useful for inserting local tracks into playlists.

Couldn't open or uninstall Spotify in Windows 10 until I downloaded your full install link which FINALLY WORKED!! I think my problem started after the last Windows update. Tried other suggested solutions but nothing worked. Huge THANKYOU!!

Well it work again all i do was uninstall tuneup 2016 because already pass the trial and work again, so if any have same problem like me blackscreen spotify try unistall any tune up or any program like iobit and just stay with ccleaner at lest is free and do mess with your system.
