Hi there @Koodoo,

 

Welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

Which version of Windows are you running? Does switching Close button should minimize the Spotify window on/off have any effect on this? You'll find the option in the app's settings.

 

 

It's worth reinstalling Spotify from a different source to see if the issue would persist there: if you downloaded the app from our website, try the version from the Microsoft Store instead, and vice versa.

 

If the issue persists, please share the exact version of Spotify you're running along with a short screen recording which captures the described behavior in action so we can take a direct look at what's happening on your end.

 

Cheers ๐Ÿค˜
