I have some solutions on community but it doesn't help. Yesterday, I solved problem but only for about 5 minutes...

 Try launching spotify from the Run command with the command below. If that works for you,  right click on the spotify shortcut you use to launch spotify (you may want to create a copy on your desktop instead) and go to properties. Go to the shortcut tab and add  --disable-accelerated-layers --disable-accelerated-fixed-root-background after the current contents of the Target box.

%APPDATA%\Spotify\spotify.exe --disable-accelerated-layers --disable-accelerated-fixed-root-background

It works after changes in RUN but when I change target box and restart spotify changes everything stays unchanched...

If it works in one, it should work in the other. Make sure that the target box looks like this at the end (copy and paste this)

spotify.exe --disable-accelerated-layers --disable-accelerated-fixed-root-background

Also be sure to click Apply then OK. If it still won't work, could you copy and paste your target box contents here?

Could you copy and paste exactly what is in your Target box?
