After checking for an update, we would recommend powercycling your device through:
Settings > System > Power > System Restart

The above menu path is for Roku TVs. For separate Roku devices the menu path is Settings > System > System Restart

@RokuDanny-R  My issue is still not resolved, I am providing you with the following information as requested:

Software Version 10.5.0 build 4174-17
Device ID: 4U759F932200
MicroSD Card: 6% used (2.0/31.4 GB)


-does this issue occur on a specific channel? if so, what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found be selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)

So far only occurs on YouTube channel
Ver 2.2 Build 93005146

-steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing

Select YouTube channel from Home screen. It indicates that it is loading. It counts down to about 54-55% then when it suddenly jumps to 100%, the error appears in a white box. "Can't run channel. YouTube could not be run because it could not be reinstalled from the network. Please check your network connection and try again."

-screenshot of any error messages of what you are experiencing.

Channel launch issues still not resolved . Recent update caused Roku 3 to malfunction.

Recent auto update ( 10/6/21) caused my Roku 3 to experience channel launch issues on all channels starting the next day. Have restarted unit and manually updated several times. Reset network and Roku 3 confirms settings are correct . This appears to be a previous problem from 9/15/21

Youtube, Prime, won't run due to being unable to reinstall from network

I see that this was an issue several weeks ago but was fixed. However, it just started today for me. Youtube and Prime (and possibly others I haven't checked) give me an error message when I try to run them that says "X can't run due to being unable to reinstall from network" or words to that effect.

I am on a TLC Roku TV, I am not sure what settings and info you need to know about. I have done a system update, no change. I have also reset the whole device, again no change.

Thanks in advance!
