#### Outdated versions of PowerShell
If you are using Windows 7 - Windows 8.1, there may be errors in the installation process due to an outdated version of NET Framework and PowerShell.
<h3>Outdated versions of PowerShell</h3>
If you are using Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, there may be errors in the installation process due to an outdated version of NET Framework and PowerShell.
Do the following:
* Upgrade to [NET Framework 4.8](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2088631)
* Upgrade to [WMF 5.1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54616)
* Reboot your PC
<strong>Note:</strong> For Windows 8 it is not possible to upgrade the PoweShell version, please upgrade to Windows 8.1 or 10
### Additional Notes:
<h1>Additional Notes:</h1>
* BlockTheSpot might only works as expected with the last tested version. Please check it before opening an issue.
* "chrome_elf.dll" gets replaced by the Spotify installer each time it updates, hence why you'll probably need to apply the patch again when it happens
* [Spicetify](https://github.com/khanhas/spicetify-cli) users will need to reapply BlockTheSpot after applying a Spicetify patches.
