How does one dislike or stop a song or artist from being played? There used to be an option in the bottom left corner of the Spotify app on Windows 10 where you could do so. Right clicking on things also doesn't work anymore. I've tried things through radio stations, by looking up the songs/artists themselves, etc. Seems like a recent update likely removed this option. Any help is appreciated.
Hi @cgreer1212,
Thank you for reaching out here in the Community!
The dislike button has been removed from Radio an Daily Mix playlists.
You can check this Live Idea related to your question. I'd recommend adding your +VOTE there and keeping an eye out for any updates on that case.
If it comes to blocking artists:
If you still see the button in your desktop app, I'd recommend performing clean reinstall of your Spotify. It's different than regular reinstallation.
Just find your device and follow the steps provided in this Article.
I hope it helps!
Uhm, so if I click hide song it only hides it in the current playlist?
How do you hide a song so you never hear it again?
Also, when I clicked "hide song" in a certain playlist it still played it? Was it because the playlist was active at the time?
Do I have to move to another service to get this basic feature of disliking songs (so they're not played) or can Spotify perform this, what I assume is, a simple function?
Also give us the ability to hide a podcast completely.
