How to resolve your error code 17 on window 7, it been 2 and a half months and you still have not resolve this situation.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I tried to reload spotify, but it would not reload. What to do?
For "no sound" issues, go to the microsoft website and download the Microsoft Fix It application for sound issues. I know MS help is typically not very helpful, but in this case, it worked for me on a sound issue. Its likely your sound settings in control panel are pointing to the wrong device.
For the "not loading" issues, did you read the previous posts regarding installing in Safe Mode?
Worked fine for me 🙂
The way you told me to go into safemode did not work for me, so I googled around a little bit, then I found that you could search for msconfig enter it and hit safeboot, and choose mode. After you are done there you have to enter msconfig again to disable safemode, or else you will always auto boot into safemode.
I know the photo is in another language, but the places there is a square around is safe boot is the big square, and the small square is boot.
Here is the source to where I found this method:

I tried downloading Spotify in SAFE MODE and it lets you bring up Spotify but Spotify Radio won't work and the center section where new suggestions of new music usually appear is blacked out.

If I do so and I take the option "weergave in 256 clours" evrything works but all other programs are not seen as they should be: clear I mean
"SPOTIFY" IS A WASTE OF TIME---I GOT MESSAGE "ERROR CODE 17" FOR ALMOST A YEAR-THEN DUE
TO MY COMPUTER BEING SO SLOW BECAUSE OF VIRUS AND VARIOUS BUGS-I HAD A COMPUTER
EXPERT CALL TO SEE ME AND HE SAID THE BEST THING TO DO WOULD BE TO CLOSE WINDOWS
DOWN COMPLETELY AND RESTART MY COMPUTER FROM SCRATCH-AFTER WHICH I WAS ABLE
TO GET "SPOTIFY" AGAIN !!!-BUT ONLY FOR ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THIS EACH TIME I WENT INTO
SPOTIFY AND PUNCHED IN A BAND OR SINGER I WANTED TO HEAR-INSTEAD OF A LIST OF NUMBERS
TO LISTEN TO-ALL I GOT WAS A BLANK SCREEN!!! {INITIALLY WHITE NOW A BLANK BLACK SCREEN}
I HAVE NOW FOUND AN ALTERNATIVE TO "SPOTIFY" BEING "GROOVESHARK" WITH THE ADDED
ADVANTAGE THAT UNLIKE "SPOTIFY" ALL AD'S ARE ONLY VISIBLE AND SO DON'T INTERFERE WITH
LISTENING TO THE MUSIC---THEN OF COURSE ONE CAN ALWAYS LISTEN TO AND WATCH MUSIC
VIDEOS IN "YOU TUBE"
Thank you for the solution - worked perfectly. I had been having the issue for a month, and this solution worked in 2 minutes.
