I have had to do this procedure twice in the last week. Hope this doesn't continue.

@SJH2025

Thanks for the post.

Have you already tried removing the channel from the Roku home screen by navigating to the channel tile, pressing the * key on your remote and choosing 'Remove channel'. Then restart your device from Settings>System>System restart. Once your player starts up again, add the channel back once more.

Does this clear up the issue you are seeing? Please keep us posted.
 

Thanks,
Danny

Hi Danny! My problem was solved within a few minutes of deleting and reinstalling Utube and then turning off and restarting my tv. All is good! Thanks, Denise

We've had the same issue with moms Hisense/Roku tv twice this week.. I have not had issues with my Onn/Roku tv... not yet anyway 🙂 the Onn is newer.. maybe its a glitch with the older software or some goofy thing.. we will keep reinstalling it and hope it lines itself out soon.. i'm hoping they are not dropping support on older product... I hate living in a world where everything is temporary and disposable... I miss the old work ethic, integrity, reliability... climbing off soapbox now ... shalom...

@Ladybug1440, try the "clear the cache" routine - Using your Roku remote, press Home 5 times, Up once, Rewind (<<) twice, and FF (>>) twice.  If you do it correctly your Roku will restart on its own.  Once it reboots, check for updates under Settings->System->System update->Check now.
