Spotify SUCKS!

Spotify SUCKS!

Every time I have installed Spotify on my computer, it doesn't work. It skips songs, plays a whole 10 seconds, then switches to another song or it will just not play any sound but show the song like it is playing. I have done everything that has been suggested to fix the problem with no luck. I am reminded every time I try to reinstall as to why I deleted it in the first place. (Frustrated and tired of wasting my time)

Welcome to the Spotify Community.

 

We're sorry to hear you feel this way. Let's try a deeper reinstallation to get this fixed. Just follow these steps:

 

  • Log out of Spotify and then close the program.
  • Uninstall 
  • Browse to the cache and delete everything inside the folder. The default location should be:

C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Local\Spotify\Storage 

 
  • Delete also the folder:

C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Local\Spotify\Users\<random numbers-user>\

 

There is a folder for each profile that has been logged into Spotify on that computer account. 

 

  • Restart your PC.
Let us know how it goes.

I completely agree. We paid for Spotify-Premium and can never get the app to work via our PC or our Roku which is why we bought the Roku in the first place. Spotify is a great idea but in practice it is impossible to use because it will never function. It is extremely frustrating. I tried following these instructions and could not get Spotify to work even then. 

It REALLY sucks. I uninstalled from my iPhone after getting hair-pulling-cut-my-veins frustated. Goodbye! Product manager should be tarred and featherd!

 

100% agree on Spotify sucks because if they let you play free music on internet why not on mobile.

I agree, Im telling all of my friends about the terrible **bleep**ty quality, can't even play on Web Player without clearing cache every 10 minutes, automatically disconnects you and takes forever to get it to work properly. You guys are going to lose A LOT of customers if you dont fix this **bleep** long term. SUPER ANNOYING 

This solution is way overcomplicated, can't you just implement a system that doesnt suck or crash or not work every time someone tries to use it? Seriously it's ridiculous, Switching over to Apple music. 

Spotify is **bleep**ing junk. As you say.. you , me and who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people are not getting the service they/we pay for. **bleep**ing fix it Spotify! Assholes!
