Spotify in Meenimal skin

2) yes, there are at least two ways of blocking some software from updating and keep the versions unchanged:
- untick a "Check For Updates" or similar checkbox or option in its settings, preferably right after installing so that it doesn't update behind your back
- use a firewall software and either block the proper executables from accessing the internet, or block everything except what you specifically allow

Thanks, that's useful info.

Yes, the update commands are also entered in Powershell:

I'm glad it finally works.

xenium, there's a new update for spicetify (as indicated in the spotify desktop app I'm using), and I copied and then entered

Code: Select all

update spicetify

in powershell, and it stated it's an unknown command. I'm not sure if I have to download the new zip from the github page (dated 24-04-24) and extract it somewhere, and then try the update command?? Not sure how to proceed with this update.

Btw, Spotify still works, and I have not had any indication of a spotify update. The skin track/album info still works too.

THE UPDATE:

xenium - Ok. I followed the original instructions (https://www.deviantart.com/xenium-art/art/Harmony-Player-UPDATED-25-MAR-2024-988018395).

Then I got this notification in Powershell (ie. that the latest version is installed):

Meenimal settings 16.jpg

Then when I went back into Spotify, I still get this notification (ie. that an update is required):

Meenimal settings 17.jpg

Clicking on the notification gives further details (ie. that I have version 2.36.5, but Powershell told me that 2.36.8 was successfully installed):

Meenimal settings 18.jpg

So i don't see why the Spicetify version isn't updating in Spotify??

Try restarting Spotify.
Personally, I don't update spicetify when there is a new version as long as the skin works.
Only when Spotify is updated.

Ok thanks, yes it's working perfectly fine right now. I have tried restarting tho but the update notification is still there.
I will do what you say anyway, and not worry about it until there's a Spotify update.

Also, just this minute installed a new theme on the desktop version - which I imagine should apply to the web version too.
