Hi

since today I cannot play any song from the Windows Desktop app.

If I click on the Play button the song does not start play.

My experience on Deezer is horrible, it is basically discovering one bug after the other.

Hi,

That doesn’t sound good. What have you already tried to fix this? Re-installed the app? Tried the web app?

of course I did all that was suggested, i think it is related to the multiple issues on Deezer apps.
Now it is playing, but about every 30 mins I get an error message and i have to restart the app….

It is a pity coy catalog wise and suggestion wise Deezer is great, but I cant cope with this cimplete lack of reliability of their apps, these error messages, connection problems and occasional failure of the “Play” button became a nightmare for me, Im done with Deezer.

It’s really a shame that you’re leaving Deezer. But after everything you’ve told us, I can completely understand why. It must be incredibly frustrating when this keeps happening, especially after you’ve tried everything and nothing has fixed it.

I use Deezer on several platforms myself, including Windows 11, and luckily I haven’t run into this issue , I can keep listening without any problems. I genuinely wish it had worked that smoothly for you too.
