2019 and Webplayer is still broken

Solved!

2019 and Webplayer is still broken

 

Webplayer is not playing any songs on any browsers.

What I have done to try resolving the issue.

- Deleted Cookies and All Temp Files many times.

- Disabled Antivirus and Firewall

- Reset TCPIP and Winsock Catalog

- Toggled offline mode

- Tried incognito mode

-  Have tried browsers Chrome, Firefox, Vivaldi, and Opera

- Disabled all extetions and adblockers etc.

- Launched the Desktop App, toggled the off line mode, and back, Still not working     on Webplayers though. 

- I've no other apps to try as I only use Webplayer. I have no desire to use your apps    on phone or any other device. 

 

The problem was bad enough when you couldn't scroll through your albums without getting a black screen, but at least I could type a secified album and play it. Then you got nastier by scrambling the albums instead of keeping them in Alphabetical Order. For the last few years I have been having nothing but issues with your service on multiple platorms and 3 computers. This one being a completely new build. Over the last 2 or so years I have watched you go from spoty service, to worse, and now to not playing at all. All this and especially now is why I refuse to go premum. My money is premium and if you want it then you have to provide premium service.

UPDATE: SOLVED

After months of no word from Spotify about this I finally figured out the problem. I can now use the Webplayer on all browsers as where before this fix I couldn't use on FF, Chrome, Vivaldi, and Opera. Anyway the problem lies in the Host file. I use Windows 10 and it literally took me about 1 minute to do. Good luck ~ Jo

Try clicking on the play button next to the song multiple times. I know whenever I use the web player it doesn’t work the first time and I have to click multiple times for it to start playing
