Re: Roku Remote "OK" button doesn't work on roku home page

@haileycaccia-

First thing I'd try would be to restart the Roku.

These things are just special purpose computers. Like their big brothers sometimes clearing things out by restarting them can correct problems. (Note that if yours is a Roku TV with "Fast start" enabled, turning it off and back on just puts it into and out of a standby state and does NOT give you a complete restart.) 

Depending on your Roku model and Roku version number you'll find the System restart option under Settings > System > Power  or if not there, under Settings > System.
