My Issue

After a sequence of ad's the next song in the album or playlist will not play. If you go to click on it a blue box at the top of the screen appears that states "Song will play after ad". It doesn't matter how long you let it sit there, it will remain like this until you fully close the application and reopen a new window. When the blue box does appear sometimes the bottom time bar will go through a 15 second empty ad but then stop at 15 and not go on to the song.

I have tried a fresh clean installation of the application. I have also attempted to turn off the hardware acceleration like other posts years back have recommended. Neither of those options fixed the issue.

The computer is treating the ad as a Null/empty ad that it will neither play nor leave.

This is not a solution I have found. I have found a work around though. If you struggle with this issue then download the windows store application instead of the spotify application from online. Works only for windows 10. However, Like I said this is not a solution it is just a way to go around an actual problem.
