Found a fix to when Spotify is not working, that i found nowhere on the internet.

I contacted Spotify because my Spotify application was not working on windows 10. I tried literally everything anyone said in this forum and other websites but that did not work for me.

This is the fix they gave me and it worked for me:

1. Open Notepad as an administrator (right-click - Open as Administrator)

2. go to File - Open and navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

3. Choose "All Files" instead of "Text Documents" next to the File Name box. You'll see a handful of files. hosts and click on Open.

4. When the file is open, you will see a block of text with # in front of each line and might see entries like 0.0.0.0 website.com127.0.0.1 website2.com

5. Check for any entries with Spotify in the address. Examples may look like: 0.0.0.0 weblb-wg.gslb.spotify.com0.0.0.0

6. If you do find any lines with Spotify, please remove them.

7. Save your changes and restart Spotify.
