Hi there @EliteEmperor

thanks for posting !

 

Let's try a small trick together:

 

- Please open your "Command Propmt" using your Win search bar

- Type in : ipconfig / flushdns

 

This should help reseting your DNS and may do the trick.

 

Waiting to hear how you did 🙂

I would imagine this to be as a possible solution, however I realized my issue was user account based since it worked on a different user on my pc. Accordingly I kept running the CCleaner registry cleaner till I got no errors / fixes and reinstalled spotify and it worked!
