For the past week my spotify has been unresponsive. When I try to play a song it take a whole mintute for it to do it, then if I try to stop it, it does the same. I can barely search songs up and it takes forever to do basically anything. I have tried reinstalling multiple times but it hasnt worked. I have tried turning off hardware acceleration and tried using the windows store version. There are also multiple instances of spotify runnning most of the time.

have exact the same problem. moved cache to hdd from ssd and it didnt help.

sometimes was going for this 

%appdata%/Spotify/Spotify.exe --cache-path=/enter/path/to/nonssd/disk/here

 but doesnt work anymore (even tho after applying this command it still was on ssd just another folder).

impossible to use spotify like that honesly, makes me so **bleep**

Same issue on my desktop app 😕

 

This happend after I added Spotify to Windows 10 X-Box Game Bar. I've removed it already and revoked the authorisation in the account settings. Tried to reinstall Spotify but nothing of it works for me.

 

If there would be any help I would also appreciate it!
