Can only play playlists... not albums or individual songs

[drwong2002]

I am running Spotify Desktop app in Windows 10. I was able to play everything last week. Now, I can only play playlists, not albums or individually selected songs. I have reinstalled Spotify (quick and clean installation), downloaded from website and Microsoft store but it hasn't worked. Was there a new update that is buggy? Any suggestions?
