My Question or Issue
My spotify desktop app is not able to go online despite a working internet connection (error code 4). It does not work on my windows 10 pc desktop app but the web player works and so does it on my phone.
I tried the following:
None of these resolved my issue.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I managed to fix this problem. This problem was unrelated to spotify. I also had issues with discord, teamspeak, basically anything that involves voice chat too.
I saw that a recent bios update installed a network driver called "Killer Network" which kind of goofed up my entire network. As soon as i uninstalled it everything went back to being perfect again.
Yep. That's the method i used for my reinstall. But it didn't change anything.
I have this exact problem too. Everything else works fine on my network, Spotify works fine on all my Google Homes, my tablet, my phone, and even on the web on the PC the desktop application does not work on, but as soon as I load the desktop application I get an Error Code 4. If I log out I get an Error Code 126.
I DO NOT run a firewall on my PC as my firewall is at the edge of my network. My edge firewall is NOT blocking anything related to Spotify (I checked), nor are any of the DNS records being blocked by my DNS server, and even if it was I would assume Spotify wouldn't work on every other device connected to the network.
This problem exists in ONLY the Windows desktop application.
OS: Windows 10
Hey @Shioro and @recrudesce,
Thanks for reaching out! Thanks for also listing what you have tried so far.
Can you both try removing the host files as per this Spotify Answer?
If that doesn't do it as well, let us know your:
Thanks in advance!
Tagging in on this as well. Started a few days ago, connected via eithernet, app is giving the offline error
Is ether a changed caused by a windows update or the program itsself. Spotify really needs to look into this, would think this is happening to a whole lot of people
Its annoying to have to listen through the web browser

I also never had killer installed. Since roughly 2 weeks this problem occurs constantly. But only from the desktop app, not through spotify over sonos.
It's very annoying and makes spotify quite unusable for me
This is STILL HAPPENING.
Spotify shows as being offline even though everything else works on the PC. I can log out, but if I attempt to log in again I get an Error 126. If I close Spotify and open it again, I can log in, but Spotify shows as being Offline with "No internet connection.".
Can we get some response on why this happens and when it will be fixed.
can you please fix this issue, still not fixed. I have tried fixing it for HOURS and have no luck.
hello .. I have the same problem ... windows 7, error 4 no internet connection ..
Try many of the things they propose here, and I still can't solve it
Please... any solution support ????
Hello,
I keep getting error code 30 when I try to login to my spotify software
program. The only way I have access to spotify now is by using the spotify web player.

very easy to reproduce: disconnect network, Spotify will stop, the pause button is shown, no action is taken. shitty app.
