Spotify AppData folder will not delete and Spotify won't run

So my Spotify stopped working now it isn't responding. I uninstalled Spotify and tried to delete the AppData folder for Spotify but it said that it could not delete it because the folder or file was open in another program. I checked in task manager but Spotify was not running. I'm not sure what to do... Help Please...

If you are on Windows 10 then the Microsoft Store will keep spotify open even if you didn't install it through there. The Microsoft Store will interfere with updates and keep the app running constantly which is why you cant delete it. Microsoft just wants to exploit you for your data so you have to install it through them. Switch to LINUX.
