Open Spotify's local storage directory, I'm using the appx version. Run this command in PowerShell
explorer `
"$([System.IO.Path]::combine("$env:LOCALAPPDATA", `
"Packages", `
"$((Get-AppxPackage -Name "SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic").PackageFamilyName)", `
"LocalState", `
"Spotify", `
"Users"))"
Once the windows explorer opens on that directory enter the directory named "{your username}-user"
and open the file prefs
and edit the lines audio.play_bitrate_enumeration
and audio.sync_bitrate_enumeration
to your liking, as far as I can tell
the enumerations are mapped to these quality levels:
1
= Low Quality2
= Normal Quality3
= High Quality4
= Extreme Quality
Setting it from 1 to 3 works as expected, but setting it to 4 has the same effect as setting it to 3 sadly
