My Question or Issue

 Hi Malawarebytes detected Spotify as a trojan and deleted folders 
I have tried reinstalling the app but computer says I have a store version on the computer 

there is nothing to delete from control panel :uninstall program

None of these folders have spotify on them 

C:\Program Files and delete the Spotify folder. 

 C:\Users\"user name"\AppData\Roaming

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Spotify

I'm at a loss on either how to uninstall it fully or how to re install the app as windows says I have a store version already installed 

any help greatly appreciated
