You have to do a factory reset to get a link code. If you have access to the menu:
settings> system> advanced system settings> factory reset
Thanks for the inquiry.
If you are looking to activate your Roku TV and link it to your Roku account, a link code will be shown when you first set up your Roku TV.
If you need to generate a link code for some reason, we would recommend trying to perform a factory reset on your Roku TV. For more information about how to perform a factory reset, visit our Support page here: How do I factory reset my Roku® streaming device?
Please keep us posted what you find out.
Thanks,

Why is it not possible to get the link code without losing all of my apps and stored data? That's pretty sucky of you Roku.
What you're asking doesn't make any sense. If you already have channels/apps then it's already linked to a Roku account. Why would you need a link code? Channels/apps are specific to each Roku account. If you're trying to link it to a different account then you'd get a different set of channels/apps. What exactly are you trying to do?
I have a similar problem.I purchased a sports package to watch hockey so wanted to link it to my phone but fumbled the mouse and erased the code before I was able to remember it to add it to my Roku page on my phone? everything is working so would not want to mess with the ROKU account? factory reset seems so extreme to link my phone ? so am I now out of luck??
Thanks for the post.

if i had the link code to activate the device i'm hoping then maybe just maybe i could get through the setup
I want to link my Apple Tablet - Roku asks for a link code to do that - that’s why I need it again.
You only link Roku devices, not anything else.
