formatting micro sd card

I hava a ROKU ultra 4k, and when ever our power flashes, or the unit itself restarts, I always have to reformat my card.  I do not understand why I have to keep doing this.  I have tried 3 different cards, but it happens on every one of them.

What size card are you using? Roku supports 2 GB microSD card expansion for storage of apps. If you put a larger card in, only 2 GB will be used, so there's no benefit in a larger card. In fact, larger cards can be problematic.
