The script should only need to be run once to block the update directory, unless they've figured out how to re-enable updates.

I've checked and can confirm that Spotify broke the script to block updates. Neither the empty file method nor blocking folder permissions using icacls works.

This will hopefully stop being a problem in the next Soggfy version, because I'm changing it to install the correct Spotify version locally.

Haven't tested but SpotX claims to be able to block updates, you could use it in the meantime.

This should no longer be a problem with https://github.com/Rafiuth/Soggfy/releases/tag/v2.3.0
