SOLUTION: I fixed my issue by removing Spotify-related entries from my hosts file. I'm assuming they were added there to bypass ad servers -- no idea how they got there, though.

My Question or Issue
For the past several weeks, I have been experiencing the following issues in the Spotify Desktop app:
I cant fix this, As notepad wont load as a admin.
I'm in the same boat, except I updated to 1.1.0.237.g378f6f25. Now all search results are missing, and I can't even click on icons to play them. Nothing works! How is this possible, Spotify?!
Simply go to your C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc directory,
copy the hosts file to your desktop,
open it with notepad,
delete any entry having to do with spotify,
save and replace the file in the directory above.
I love you!
**bleep** Thanks! I had the same problem.
Thank you so much! You've honestly saved me so much hassle
Big thanx to you! I have tried everything but this file yet! Now all works again! Thx!!
God Bless your soul sir
