TV restarts after powering down
I recently bought a Roku 43R4A5R. It frequently but not always restarts after I power down the TV.
For example, I watch the TV for a while after supper & then turn it off. Sometimes, but not every night, the TV turns itself on while I'm in the shower or after I go to sleep.
I've tried a system restart but that doesn't help. The TV is mounted on a wall so I can't reach the plug to unplug the TV & then plug it back in.
The OS is up-to-date. Here are the details:

I turned off the screen saver. The TV has adequate signal WiFi signal strength because a WiFi extender is just a few feet away.
I hope that there's no router tweaking involved.
Why does the TV keep turning on after I turn it off?
Hey, MacNerd79c
We noticed that you're experiencing an issue where your Roku TV restarts on its own after being powered down. For now, try disabling Fast TV Start.
- Press Home on the Roku remote
- Scroll and select Settings
- Select System
- Select Power
- Find and select Fast TV Start.
- To disable it, simply check the box beside 'Enable Fast TV Start'.
Hope this works!
