My Question or Issue

Is there a way to move playback backwards or forwards by 10 or 20 seconds?

Hi @thrimblesquingoid, thanks for reaching out!

You can move forward by 5 seconds by clicking on "Playback" and then "Seek Forward", when using your Windows app.

You can also set a shortcut for this action, in your Windows preferences.

Let me know if you need further help!

Thanks. It's in the menu. I see there's also a keyboard "shortcut". By "Windows Preferences" is that something in the Spotify app or Windows itself?

Thanks, JIm

Hey Jim, it's in Windows itself.

I don't use this operational system but I've found this on the Microsoft support site that might help you.

Let me know how it goes!

Thanks. I think I'll use shift + arrow rather than assign something else. Jim

I'm glad I could help, @thrimblesquingoid.

Since I use this feature a lot, I assigned the right arrow only to seek forward. Pretty simple!
