Re: Disabled roku

Did you call someone to set up your Roku initially?  The only way it can be put into guest mode is either by someone in your home or someone that has access to your Roku account.

Well I’m sure it was the owner but it was a gift so it’s technically mine but I don’t know how to get in and change it over now it’s saying account disabled so what now

Re: Disabled roku

I would suggest contacting the person who gifted it to you. They should be able to log in to their Roku account and Unlink the device, allowing you to set up your own Roku account and tie the device to it.
