EZBlocker not working when Spotify minimized to system tray #244

Thanks for such an app! I use it on a daily basis. It seems like EZBlocker can't recognize adds to block whenever Spotify gets minimized to the system tray. I'm using the 1.7.6 version on Windows 10 20H2 compilation 19042.662

Hope this is helpful to solve this issue.

EZBlocker uses the window title to determine if what's playing is an ad or not (see here). Without a window there is no window title to watch
