Aquatic screensaver causes Roku shut off

The Aquatic Life Screensaver, my favorite keeps causing Roku to shut off.  My Samsung TV shows device is off and I need to select power on to turn it back on.   It's been working fine for years on different Rokus but this started happening out of the blue last month.

I tried other Screensaver and no problem.  I wanted to try to reinstall the Aquatic Life Screensaver but I do not see an option for that in the Themes > Screensavers.  Nor do I see any way to uninstall it and reinstall it.  I am using another screensaver but would love to get the Aquatic Life working again.

Any ideas.  Thanks.

Try unplugging the Roku for 30 to 60 seconds and see if that helps.

Do you have "Power saving" enabled under Settings->System->Power?  Admittedly, I don't know why it would affect one screensaver and not another.

Thanks for the suggestion but no I do not use power saving.   I found the same issue with the cascading Rokus but Roku city does not cause a crash.  So 2 of the 3 free Roku screensavers cause the crash.
