Spotify not running, using windows store version, and there's no option to 'open weblinks in app' about wox.plugin.spotify HOT 9 OPEN

This looks like it is due to the change in the Spotify authentication flow #6. Looks like the original dev mentioned using the Authorization Code Flow to avoid having the user sign in every couple of days. This would require a continuous running process that refreshes the access token. I think the Implicit Grant Flow would be the way to go. Sure, it would require the user to sign in once and a while, but it would take a lot of complexity out of the authorization process flow and would increase security. @JohnTheGr8 How would you feel about taking this route instead? I can crank it out this weekend, with your blessing of course.

Alternatively you could install the Wox.SpotifyPremium - works on my side!

I have the same problem as @filtration . Spotify installed from the exe package downloaded from spotify.com
Also I have to mention that I've changed the default installation dir (outside Program Files or App Data)
version 1.0.87.491.ge2a121fc (the same as the Windows Store ver)

I have the same problem as above. Is there a workaround?

Any news on this. It's indeed removed

Sorry for the late response. After doing some research, I really don't have a clear path forward as to how we could perform Spotify's Authorization Flow from a desktop application. It's possible to trigger the opening of a browser to the authentication page, but capturing the redirect url isn't possible (unless we were to bake in a web browser to Wox). Unless anyone else has any ideas, I think this is dead.

Without any knowledge of the process, can't we just send requests and read the responses through normal request and through standard C#?
