My Question or Issue

Hi.

So a couple days back i had a problem with my spotify and i uninstalled it and now when i try to install it again it says that "the installer is unable to install spotify because the files to be written are in use", i already searched for some answers on line and everything i tried didn´t work.

I msconfing on my pc and disabled everything and restarted.

I tried everything i saw and nothing work.

When i try to delete the spotify files in %appdata% it won´t let me (i will attatch a print here), and when i go to the task manager if doesn´t appear anywhere.

Hey there @MoreiraisGood!

 

Thanks for reaching out to us on the Community.

 

If you're using Windows 10, we'd recommend installing the app from the Microsoft store.

 

In case you have trouble with that, you could give it a shot in Safe Mode. You can take a look at this page to see how to do that.

 

Keep up posted on how it goes!
