Hello,

10 days ago i have reinstall my Kali Linux to make a dual boot with Windows 10. Today i tried AdKiller because im bored of YouTube, i used these command

sudo apt-get install x11-utils pulseaudio-utils libnotify-bin xdotool vlc cd /Documents git clone https://github.com/SecUpwN/Spotify-AdKiller.git cd Spotify-AdKiller chmod +x ./install.sh ./install.sh

Then i have install Spotify i don't know if i can remember this but when i start spotify by the command line "spotify" the name of the app is Spotify Free but im not sure before it was just Spotify.

EDIT: im on Kali Of course, now i have advert ...

Important thing I just figured out: don't install Spotify using snap if that is the case. I'm on Ubuntu, and realized this tool isn't working with a Spotify installed from snap. I had to uninstall it, and reinstall through apt in my case.

Yes. And apart from that, you mustn't start spotify from command line Launch the Spotify (Adkiller).desktop The .desktop file executes spotifywrapper.sh

Also, lock Spotify and prevent it from updating. That might help too
