spotify isn't working on windows after uninstalling ad blocker

[lizz-skzz]

i had installed an ad blocker for spotify on my windows pc, but as it failed to work i uninstalled it. now i cannot log in to my account on spotify on pc and web player too. has my device been banned from spotify? because spotify is working completely fine on my phone. hope there is a solution to this.

Hey there @

Thanks for the post.

Can you try the following:

1. On the log-in screen, click Settings

2. Go to the 'update proxy' settings

3. Choose 'No Proxy' from the dropdown in the top right corner
4. Click 'Update Proxy' on the left, otherwise your change will not be saved!
5. Click 'Back To Login'
6. Restart the application

Let us know if that helps.
