My Question or Issue

Recently I've been getting very high cpu usage from spotify around 15-25%, even though nothing is playing. So far I've tried clean reinstall and turning hardware acceleration off. This only started recently, few days ago.

No help from there, reinstalled spotify many times, checked for windows updates, everything I could think of.. Not very nice hearing CPU fan going 100% most of the time because of spotify..

Hi @user-removed

thanks for bearing with me here !

The latest version's release was updated recently and should fix this issue.

I recommend you give the app under reinstall (restart after it's finished) and let me know how it went.

Waiting on your update 🙂
