Opened Spotify and it installed even though Spotify has been installed for a while

[needhelp19]

I've had Spotify installed on my computer for a while, but haven't opened it in about a month. I opened it today, and it had an installing popup (not "Installing Update", it was Installing like I'd opened the installer, even though Spotify has been installed for a while. Why? Is it because it's been so long since the last time I opened it?

Hey @needhelp19, welcome to the Spotify Community!

Right, Spotify would have needed to install updates because you haven't opened it in a while.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need help with anything else! Happy listening 🙂

Even though the word "Update" was not in the pop up at all? @Jacob_?

Even though it didn't say "update" in it?

@needhelp19,

Yes, it was still only updating even if it didn't include the word "update" 🙂
