Windows 10: Falied to logon to the Spotify desktop client.

I recently experienced a issue with the Spotify client on my Windows 10 Build 10130.

I wasnt able to logon using my Facebook account and recived the following message.

The only thing that worked was the tip “If you have a Facebook-connected Spotify account, you can also login using your Facebook email address and password as your Spotify username and password. (These won’t be stored.)”.

This is how you do that.

1. Go to Security Settings: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=security&vie​w
2. Find App Passwords and click Edit
3. Click the Generate App Passwords
4. Click the Generate App Passwords (again 🙂 )
   
   
5. Enter a friendly name for the app, for instance: Spotify
6. Click Generate Password
7. Log on to Spotify using your Facebook Email as username with the password you just created.

Happy listening..

And so it begins…
