I did try the APPDATA trick that Checker linked but didn't work.

Here is a quick yaP config:
http://pastebin.com/Y4jC1UTY

Note that the last two items ("-regvalue" lines) remove autorun feature, so if there is an installed Spotify on the host machine it won't autorun after running the yaPped version.

Why don't you just use the online version of Spotify?

hi thanks for the config
i will try on a clean install
but do you know where is stored the user and password?
does the yap config make it stealth ?

thanks again , i will try as soon as i can

i don't think i can use it at work :) , a portable version would be better

I couldn't test it thoroughly but I will do that some days later.

Username and password seems to be saved in the "prefs" file (in the "Settings" dir of yaP dir):

Code: Select all

autologin.blob=...
autologin.username=...

To set a custom cache directory, append this to the end of the BEFORE section:

Code: Select all

stringreplace = {YAPROOT}\Data :: \ :: \\ :: CACHEDIR
iniwrite = %Appdata%\Spotify\prefs :: NULL :: storage.location :: "{CACHEDIR}"
This sets the cache directory to "Data" directory in the launcher's root.
Of course you can set another directory too.

I updated the Spotify example on the site:
http://rolandtoth.hu/yaP/#examples/Spotify.ini

I plan to add a donation button later to cover the cost of the purebasic license but first I would like to iron out the bugs.
