My Question or Issue

So I upgraded to windows 11 but the spotify music overlay does not show up. It's checked on in the settings. I tried both the App and normal version of Spotify

Only the volume shows up

@novy and @Alfakennyone, the overlay is hidden in the action center, at first I too thought it was bugged, but it's not. It's more of a Windows 11 thing. You can access it with Win + A. I hope MS reconsiders this.

Hello, the issue is also that Link to Spotify aint even opening anything. I reinstalled Spotify and restarted the PC too but it just gets stuck on Connecting to a service but doesn't actually connect.

I also have the same problem, and I hate it! I need to be able to skip songs from everywhere, not just from the Action Center. I don't care about the Action Center, it's too many extra clicks or keys for me, it's inconvenient.

If I am in a Citrix session, or in a virtual machine session or whatever, I need to interrupt myself, in order to click click click what used to be a single click? 

I am so sorry for buying Windows 11!
