## Manual Installation Guide
To implement the Spotify AdBlocker, follow these steps:
1. **Download the Required File:**
- Obtain the `xpui.spa` file from the [latest release](https://github.com/An0n-00/SpotifyAB/releases) in this repository.
2. **Replace the Existing File in Spotify Directory:**
- Navigate to your Spotify installation directory:
`C:\Users\_username_\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\Apps\`
- Replace the existing `xpui.spa` file with the downloaded `xpui.spa` from step 1.
- ~If you encounter issues, unzip the `xpui.spa` to `.\xpui\`~
- Newly you have to have the `xpui.spa` and `\xpui` as a folder. (you can unzip the xpui.spa file with any other software that unzips .tar files)
> [!important]
> Please always read the newest release, as it may contain newer information than written here
3. **Restart Spotify:**
- Close and reopen the Spotify desktop app to apply the changes.
You have successfully installed the Spotify AdBlocker! 🎉
> [!CAUTION]
> ### Compatibility Notice:
> This method is specifically designed for the Spotify desktop app on Windows. **The Microsoft Store version is not supported.** 🖥️❌
## Verification Process
You can verify the functionality by examining the contents of the `xpui.spa` file:
- Unzip the `xpui.spa` file using any zip program.
- Explore the extracted files. The main file of interest is `./spotifyAB/AB.js` and the `index.html` file, which calls the JS file.
- The `AB.js` file contains the JavaScript code that blocks the ads.

## Useful Information
> [!TIP]
> I've published another project called [Spotify-ad-hosts](https://www.github.com/An0n-00/Spotify-ad-hosts) that used to block Spotify ads by modifying the hosts file. It did not work out properly due to Spotify's changes in the ad-serving mechanism. However, I recommend to add the domains to the hosts file as an additional layer of protection and to block trackers. 📝 Check it out! 📦
