Wait!

Windows

  • Run the installer and follow all steps.
  • The Tampermonkey script is opened in your browser. Please install (or update) the script.

Old manual method:

1 - Application

  • Move the folder SpotifyDownloader somewhere safe.
    • When updating from an older version, don't overwrite appsettings.user.json.
  • Run configure.bat in the SpotifyDownloader folder once to configure the application.

2 - Protocol

  • Run regedit-install.bat as administrator.
  • Enter the full path to your SpotifyDownloader.dll. It is located in the SpotifyDownloader folder.

3 - Tampermonkey

macOS

1 - Application

  • Move the folder SpotifyDownloader to /Applications/SpotifyDownloader
    • The result should look like this: /Applications/SpotifyDownloader/SpotifyDownloader.dll.
  • Call the application once to configure it with dotnet /Applications/SpotifyDownloader/SpotifyDownloader.dll.

2 - Protocol

  • Open applescript-spotdl.scpt with your Script Editor.
  • Export the script as an Application. The name and location of the application do not matter.

  • In the application contents, open the file Contents/Info.plist with a text editor.

  • Right above </dict> at the end of the file, add the following code:
	<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
	<array>
		<dict>
			<key>CFBundleURLName</key>
			<string>spotdl</string>
			<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
			<array>
				<string>spotdl</string>
			</array>
		</dict>
	</array>
  • Save the file.
  • Double click the application once to make sure spotdl is configured.
  • You can verify the application works by running open spotdl:SPOTIFYURL in a Terminal.

If anyone can supply me with English variations of the macOS images, please submit an issue.
