Hi there @iGr33X,

thanks for reaching out to the community !

Let's start with a basic clean reinstall (a bit different than the usual reinstall) of the app following the steps provided on this Spotify answer.

Important to mention that you should run you WIN update to make sure your system is updated properly before checking the steps above.

I would also check if any anti-virus or firewall you may be using aren't blocking the app from working.

Reply back to the post and let me know how it goes 🙂
