Have you got the .NET runtime installed?

Yep.
Whenever i try to install it, the installation gets terminated and it tells me that i already have the newest version.
Checked my Version via regedit and i have the latest one there

Thank you very much for the feedback @CmdNomad. I've now replicated the issue on a machine that was confirmed to run the applet before. I need to do more investigation but suspect that a Windows 10 update may have caused the issue.

Upon further inspection, it seem like the Spotify API that we were using, via SpotifyAPI-NET
, was removed more details are available at JohnnyCrazy/SpotifyAPI-NET#254.

I can confirm this. The UWP version of the Spotify app will not work. You'll need to install the regular version here: https://www.spotify.com/us/download/windows/

Did it work for you with the regular Spotify version?

So i have the standalone Spotify Windows client.
It is set to autorun.
I have the app from here. In a folder on my desktop.
When i hit the exe nothing happens. No tray icon, nothing on my LCD panel, no matter if Spotify is running or not.
Could you run me through the steps you did to get it working?

I've been working on a version that works with the Spotify Web API:

Have to clean up the code and find a way to get in the needed credentials on a userfriendly way, but it works ok for now.

Cool!

My outline plan would be to run a server-side solution in Cloudflare workers. Meaning that the Spotify developer API keys reside under the service provider control, rather than needing to be embedded in a distributed applet binary.

This design requires writing a token swap endpoint in JavaScript https://johnnycrazy.github.io/SpotifyAPI-NET/auth/token_swap.html#using-tokenswapauth. This should be fairly straightforward with improved dev experience made possible by Wrangler https://github.com/cloudflare/wrangler

Now has a progress bar, shows repeat and shuffle modes and whether a track is liked. Track can be liked with a press of the fourth (most right) button. Changing shuffle and repeat modes can only be done when you have a premium account.

I know it's been more than a year and a half since you were working on this but did you ever manage to finish this project?
