My Question or Issue

Buenas. En el ordenador de la oficina, no podemos abrir spotify. Tenemos cuenta premium y siempre ha funcionado sin problema. Desde el sábado, no ejecuta. Clickeo en el icono y sale 1 segundo el círculo de cargar y desaparece. No nos deja desinstalarlo en panel de control, con lo que borro la carpeta de su ubicación de instalación. He borrado la carpeta que se ubica dentro de usuario/App Data y lo he vuelto a instalar. Vuelve a pasar lo mismo. No hay manera de abrirlo, tras unas 4 instalaciones con el nuevo ejecutador incluso. ¿Cómo me pueden ayudar? Tenemos a toda la oficina sin música!! Jajaj

Hey @Lauracf94, help's here. 

 

We hope you don't mind us replying in English. If you made sure to reinstall the app already, make sure Spotify isn't blocked in your firewall settings. Then, try the following steps: 

 

  • Open Notepad as an administrator (right-click - Open as Administrator)
  • go to File - Open and navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
  • Choose "All Files" instead of "Text Documents" next to the File Name box. You'll see a handful of files. Pick hosts and click on Open
  • When the file is open, you will see a block of text with # in front of each line and might see entries like 0.0.0.0 website.com127.0.0.1 website2.com
  • Check for any entries with Spotify in the address. Examples may look like: 0.0.0.0 weblb-wg.gslb.spotify.com0.0.0.0
  • If you do find any lines with Spotify, please remove them.
  • Save your changes and restart Spotify.

If that doesn't work, let us know some more info, and send screenshots. Also try the Web Player and tell us if it works there.

 

All the best! 🙂
