My Question or Issue

Every time I try to open the app on my laptop, the following message pops up: "The Spotify Application is Not Responding". I first ignored it, hoping it would fix itself after a restart of my computer etc. but the issue remains. I deleted the app to reinstall it, but the message pops up again.

Hey @merelvs - help's here!

First, could you try re-downloading the Spotify app from this link as opposed to the Windows Store?

If that doesn't work, then do you mind going to Task Manager > Spotify > End Task, and then re-opening the Spotify app and seeing if it works now?

If not, then could you check your firewall settings and make sure that Spotify is set as an exception?

Let us know how you get on! We'll be right here in case you need any further help.
