Can’t Remove Paramount+ Channel

Jump to solution

This is simple. Simple and stupid. I mistakenly installed the PARAMOUNT+ channel on my Roku stick. NOT THE PARAMOUNT+ ON THE ROKU CHANNEL ONE. I’m talking about the regular PARAMOUNT+ channel. 

There is no way to remove it. I’ve already restarted, checked for software updates. WTH?

If you highlight it on the Home Screen and press * on your remote do you get an option to "Remove channel" or an option to manage your subscription?

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ If I could remove the channel normally, I would not have posted here.

No. There is no regular option to remove like all other channels. Thank you for chiming in.

Roku will not let you remove a channel that it thinks you have an active subscription through Roku.  "Remove channel" will be replaced by "Manage subscriptions".  Click this and follow the prompts to unsubscribe from this channel. (You'll still have use of it for the balance of any pre-paid subscription period. You can resubscribe later if you like.)  Now the ”Remove channel" menu item will be back and you can remove the channel.

I don't have an active subscription to Paramount+ but it still has no option to remove the channel like all other channels do.  Very annoying.  Any other way to remove a channel from your Roku?
