In the past couple of years, the music streaming industry has seen a significant rise in the user base.
And thanks to data getting cheaper all over the world, music enthusiasts are increasingly leaning towards services like Spotify. With a presence in over 180 countries, it had more than 422 million users as of Q1 2022.
But as is the case with the majority of popular streaming services, users have complained about bugs such as offline music not working on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and Discover Weekly playlist updating with the same songs as last week.
Adding another one to the list, it looks like the Spotify for Windows app is crashing at login, during playback, and after the song ends (1,2,3,4,5).
This is making the Spotify for Windows app completely unusable for those affected. Common troubleshooting solutions such as restarting Windows, logging out and back in, and reinstalling the app don’t seem to help either.
Fortunately, Spotify developers have acknowledged the problem and said the concerned team is investigating the issue where the Windows app is crashing. But they did not share any ETA of when it will be fixed.
When the developers release an update that resolves the problem, we will be updating this space to let you know so make sure you keep checking PiunikaWeb.
