My Question or Issue

My spotify is not starting. I tried to reinstall and still not working. What should I do? I tried everything (clearing cache, troubleshooting etc) but its just not starting. Theres black screen like 3 seconds and then it shuts down.

One year ago I had also starting problems with 22.04 but this is totally different

Probably you have same issue as described here:
https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Linux/Illegal-instruction-core-dumped/td-p/6439555

Can you run this in terminal and post output:
spotify --show-console --debug-level=MAX
