Outdated versions of PowerShell
If you are using Windows 7, there may be errors in the installation process due to an outdated version of NET Framework and PowerShell. Do the following:
- Upgrade to NET Framework 4.8
- Upgrade to WMF 5.1
- Reboot your PC
After running Install.bat, the console window closes
After launching Install.bat the console window closes immediately and nothing happens. Most likely the problem is related to the curl command line utility.
curl is also shipped by Microsoft as part of Windows 10 and 11, if your Windows version is lower then you need to manually install this utility:
- Click on the link and download based on your OS bit depth.
- We start the installation process, at the end we must restart the PC.
- We check that everything went right
- Opening the console
Win + R, writingcmd,Ok - in the console, we write the command
curl -V - In response, you should get the
curl version, for example, I had version7.79.1
- Opening the console
How do I go back to the previous version of the client ?
If you have problems with the patch after upgrading the client version, then use this tool to revert back to the working version.
I want to return old icons
There is an answer here, if you do not like the new icons leave your comment there.
- The repository is based on BlockTheSpot, and also some tricks were taken from spicetify-cli, many thanks to the contributors
- SpotX will only work correctly on the latest versions of Spotify, please make sure of this before asking a question.
- The modifiable files are replaced by the Spotify installer every time it is updated, so you will need to apply the patch again when this happens.
- SpotX will be installed even if you are using Spicetify, but you may need to run Install.bat again after running the
spicetify applyor other commands.
