Additional Notes:

+ * 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.
