Hey @TooLong


You don't really need to delete anything in the hosts file if you're uncomfortable about it.

**bleep** so simple! Thanks! No idea why that line was there but now it's fixed!
Also, if anyone is having this problem:
1. Open the host file (it should be extentionless) with notepad or something alike

2. Search for the open.spotify and/or play.spotify and/or desktop.spotify lines
3. Delete these lines entirely or add a # in front of them (this marks them as comment and won't use them

4. Click save (might have to save as .txt, delete the old host file and remove the .txt extention of the new one manually)


so e.g.:
