I have had the same issue for 3 weeks now. Almost all apps flash and then take me back to the home screen. I have tried all listed above : to reload, unplug, reset, delete and reinstall apps again. Nothing works. What is the solution? Could the experts please post the instructions step by step. Thank you.

When I click on YouTube icon or Youtube TV the following message comes up: 

YouTube? YouTube TV  could not be run because it could not be reinstalled from the network. Please, check your network connection and try again.

I have checked the network and connection It's all fine. Some apps on Roku work, some old ones just like YouTube don't load. Please, I need advice/ instructions. I watch only YouTube Channel basically. I'd like to see it running via Roku again. Thank you
