Stubborn "local files" song won't delete, tried everything, any fix?

user-removed — Sun, 26 Sep 2021 23:25:17 GMT

I've deleted "local-files.bnk" as per multiple suggestions, restarted Spotify, restarted my computer, and the song, it's one song, that I'm trying to delete keeps popping up. It won't go away. Very annoying, is there any solution to this?

Hey @user-removed,

Thanks for reaching out to the Community and welcome!

You can try moving that specific file to a different folder, then go to Settings > Show Local Files > disable the source where you moved that file to > restart the app.

Let us know how that goes.

That's the thing the file isn't on my computer.

Hey @user-removed,

Thanks for the reply.

Can you log in on that other computer and try disabling local files from there?

Let us know if this works for your.

If not, please submit a screenshot of how the Local files folder looks on your end.

Cheers.
