(BUG) Can't unsave albums!

(BUG) Can't unsave albums!

Hello. When I started using Spotify a few months ago I saved most of my singles with their single song album.

 

I would now like to only have the song itself saved, so I can filter in my full albums easily with the "only saved albums" filter.

 

But I came across a weird bug.

If I unsave an album, and then re-add it's song to my library, the album disappears from my library temporarily, and then is re-added once I change the next album. (yes, with the saved albums filter on)

 

NOT ONLY is it re-added, but when I go back to it, the save button is re-set to "saved" and then stuck on that state when I try unsaving it again.

Logging out/resetting the app only gets me to square one.

 

When I view the album on the web player, it appears as unsaved.

This applies to albums I haven't messed with too. They're marked unsaved on the web and saved on the client.

(Weird sidenote - saving the album in web makes it disappear in the client.

Unsaving the album and saving the song after that brings me to square one with the album re-appearing in the client as saved.)

 

The bug doesn't seem to affect ALL single song albums. I am not sure if that's because I never saved their album or something else. It does affect songs I saved recently. Can't remember if I saved them manually or their album, though.

 

I've even tried a CLEAN RE-INSTALL. The albums are still set to saved in the client and not in the web player. (Even went as far as to hack my way into the WindowsApps folder to make sure there are no traces)

 

This is a head scratcher.

 

Thanks.

 

TL;DR albums get stuck on "saved", but only on the desktop client.
