I made a PowerShell menu for Spicetify — Spicetify Manager

Hey everyone

I've been using Spicetify for a while now, and i wanted to build an program like this.

I have small problems, but it added up. So I built a PowerShell wrapper that puts everything behind a menu. Nothing groundbreaking — just something that scratches my own itch.

What it does:

[1] Auto — spicetify auto → My daily driver. Backup, apply, launch Spotify. One key.

[2] Full Restore — restore → backup → apply → Nuclear option for when things are really broken

[3] Quick Repair — backup apply → First thing I hit after Spotify updates overnight

[4] Themes / Extensions / Apps → List themes, apply by name, toggle extensions

[5] Marketplace → Install or repair it in one step

[6] Upgrade Spicetify CLI → Pull the latest version

[9] Install Spotify Desktop → Kills the Store version and installs the real deal

Plus a status page, automatic path repair, and settings toggles.

What it looks like:

Design decisions I made:

No config files. Settings are per-session — nothing gets written to disk. Every launch is a clean slate with sensible defaults.

Admin check on startup. Spicetify refuses to run elevated and Spotify shows a black window. The script catches this immediately and tells you to re-run as a normal user.

Store vs Desktop detection. Automatically detects if you have the Microsoft Store version (which Spicetify can't patch) and offers to swap it for the Desktop installer.

Path auto-repair. After Spotify updates or reinstalls, spotify_path and prefs_path can drift. The manager scans common install locations and fixes them.

One file. It's a single .ps1 plus a .bat launcher. No installers, no dependencies, no setup wizards. Extract and double-click.

Quick start:

  1. Download the ZIP from the latest release
  2. Extract anywhere
  3. Double-click Spicetify-Manager.bat
  4. Done.

Requires Windows 10/11 + PowerShell 5.1+ (already on your machine).
