Lost local file retrieval

Gappologist — Sun, 05 Feb 2017 12:44:51 GMT

Hey,

So I synced some local files to a playlist on my computer. Then using the wifi synced the playlist to my phone. Somewhere along the way the local files on my computer have been deleted and spotify can't play any of the songs through the desktop program (cause they're not there). I can still play them on my phone, so presumably I have them on my phone somewhere...can I get them off my phone and onto my PC or is that impossible because of encryption etc?

You'll find them in the folder \android\data\com.spotify.music\files\spotifycache\users\yournumericid\localsync.

They'll have weird names but are still mp3 files so you can take it from there.
