CTOnews.com, Sept. 29, according to Windows Latest, according to many users on social media platforms, the streaming app Spotify is automatically installed on Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers without warning or notification. It is not clear whether Bug or Microsoft did it on purpose.

CTOnews.com learned that some users also left negative comments on the Microsoft Store, angrily hitting 1 Star, asking Microsoft to explain how the application was automatically installed on their systems.

It is not clear how the application is installed on Windows devices. It is not expected to be done by Spotify, because the Windows App Store is controlled by Microsoft. Due to the error Bug in the system, Microsoft may accidentally push the application to the PC device through its app store.

However, this may also be a new feature tested by Microsoft. Microsoft does have ultimate control over "leased" apps, apps downloaded from the app store. Microsoft uses the same mechanism to automatically install Candy Legend and other applications.

When a user installs any application from the Windows store, the store is granted access to the device, and Microsoft can remotely uninstall the application.

Even if the Spotify application is installed on a Windows 10 / Windows 11 device without an express license, the user can uninstall it at any time and will not download or install it again. That said, many users are still unhappy with Microsoft downloading applications to the system without their consent.
