Spotify desktop fullscreen bug

Jackknif3 — Tue, 10 Oct 2017 21:15:56 GMT

I'm running a dual monitor setup and noticed that when I move the Spotify app to my main screen and fullscreen it, it cuts off at my friends list and just displays my desktop on the far right of my screen. This also means that it cuts off the volume control, devices and queue buttons from the far right bottom of the window.

Also noticed if I "halfscreen" (pulling the window to either left or right side of the screen) the app, it leaves out a small gap both on the top and middle-side of the window.

1) Close Spotify

2) Go to your spotify AppData folder -- generally here:

C:\\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\

and delete the "prefs" file.

3) Restart Spotify. Most likely will have to login again. Should work properly now.

This didn't work for me. I have the same issue since v 1.0.65.320.gac7a8e02. I have a tripple monitor setup with two portrait screens resolution 1050x1680 and when snapped into one of the portrait monitors 1/3 of the window is lost at the bottom including controls etc.

Worked for me, but different filepath. I found and deleted two prefs files, and had to log in again:

<Drive>:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Packages\SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic\LocalState\Spotify\

<Drive>:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Packages\SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic\LocalState\Spotify\Users\<user>
