Right-click on the Spotify app and select ‘Uninstall’.
Follow the steps given below to reinstall Spotify on Windows 10. If every method has failed to fix Spotify’s not responding error message, you need to Reinstall the Spotify application. This will open the file menu, select View, and uncheck the ‘Hardware Acceleration’ from the list of options. To disable Hardware Acceleration, open the Spotify app, press the ALT key. Many Spotify users have claimed that unchecking the Hardware acceleration has helped fix the Spotify not responding error message. Spotify has this feature that overrules all software-based optimizations and uses your PC’s hardware to promote better & efficient performance. On Hardware acceleration, the app uses a computer’s hardware capability to improve some functions, rather than relying entirely on the software. So, regardless of whatever operating system you are using, you need to restart your PC in this method. Restarting a device is usually an excellent method to resolve errors. It doesn’t matter whether you are using a Windows PC or Mac if you encounter the error message even after reopening the Spotify application, you need to restart the entire system. On the Activity Monitor, select ‘ Spotify‘ from the menu and click on the ‘X’ mark at the top to close the application. On macOS, press the Command + Space key and search for Activity Monitor.
