Hello @KrisKraanen,

Does it say your online? Usually when you are offline it only shows recent searches. Try two easy solutions to fix the this problem. Firstly try logging in and out of your account. Secondly try uninstalling and reinstalling Spotify. These seem to be the two solutions for your problem

Hope this helps. Likes are appreciated.

If this is your solution please mark it as such.

Yes i am online, and did reinstall and logout and logged back in. Still same problem

Installing the offline version did it, thank you for the help!

what did you do exactly maybe it also works for me 

Sorry, this was supposed to go on another board, doesn't have anything to do with your problem

Hey @KrisKraanen

 

You can also try the offline installer, maybe it works for you as well 🙂

Do the clean reinstall, this is how to:

1. Close Spotify and uninstall it.

2. Go to %AppData% in Windows Explorer, and delete any Spotify folders you find in Local and Roaming folders.

3. Restart your computer.

4. Download and install the offline installer.

 

In case you're using the Windows Store version, you can uninstall it through Apps and Features.

 

Let me know how you get on!
