Search option disappeared on Roku TV
I've had my TCL Roku for about two years, and suddenly today, my search option was gone on my home screen. I suddenly can't search for any shows or movies. What happened? I didn't reset anything and ...

I had the same aggravating issue. First I went to Settings, System and System Update. When that was complete, I went to System Restart (directly under System Update). It fixed it and now my search option is back. Makes no sense but it worked!
It just happened to me too, Wednesday, Nov 23,2022. System restart fixed it. Update didn’t help, messing around with other settings didn’t help, but system restart did it. Thanks !
Infuriating. And an unacceptable example of corporate greed.
I tried this suggestion, still not working for us. System update checked as well
Hi Lpereira14
Thanks for the post.
Could you tell us where are you currently located? Please be advised that the 'Search' functionality is not available if you are using a Roku device linked to a Roku account created in a region in which we do not directly market or sell Roku devices, including Roku TVs.
Furthermore, make sure that the email address linked to your TV is your email address. You can do this by navigating to Settings > System > About.
Keep us posted!
All the best,
KarizaIf there are using the excuse that you are not in the area where Roku TV is used then they are just being corporate scumbags. Some people use vpns that may not look like they're from the correct area for security and idiot corporations like this try to keep you from keeping a secure system.
