Getting Started - Setup & How-to

[cruisers3750]

I purchased a Roku Premiere brought it home and activated.  But after using it we were unhappy with it because it did not have Volume or On/Off Controls. I returned it to the store and bought a Roku Premiere + and am happy with it. My question is what happens when someone buys my returned Roku and plugs it in. Will it have my information on it that other people can use. Will it start up as soon as they plug it in? Can they buy apps on my account? Should I contact Roku?

Go into your Roku.com account and unlink the previous device from your account.  This will force a reset when it is next connected to the internet.

Always factory reset devices before you return or sell them.  I bought a used Roku TV once that had another lady's account on it.  I poked around but then reset the device.
