Yet Another EZBlocker Fork!

EZBlocker is a Spotify Ad Blocker written in C# for Windows 7/8/10/11. The goal for EZBlocker is to be the most reliable ad blocker for Spotify.

When an advertisement is playing, EZBlocker will mute Spotify until it's over.

YAEZBlocker is a fork to the original EZBlocker application, which aims at:

1. remove the Analytics framework to avoid sending data to undesired third-parties,

2. avoid cluttering the system, removing the following:

   • usage of registry keys to store application state,
   • saving of host file to System32 folder

3. Code clean up and build-system integration (CMake)

This is also my first (and likely only) C# project. So one of the goals is to become more confident with the language and tools associated.

How to build

Visual Studio with C# build-tools and CMake are required.

The build has been tested with:

• Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition, and
• CMake 3.22

To build the program, use CMake to generate a VS solution and then compile the associated project. Using a console prompt:

• Go to src folder;
• Create and move to a build directory;
• generate a VS solution with CMake cmake.exe .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019";
• open the VS solution created;
• build the project
