How to fix error message 'Not enough space. Please delete some apps and try again'

Jump to solution

Hello. I have had a Roku device connected to my small Samsung TV for years and I rarely have had problems, although I had to replace the device already once as it was no longer working, and I could not watch any channels at all. 

Lately, I have had the same thing you are describing happen to me but with my Amazon Prime account telling me to free up space etc. 

Firstly, I do not know where to find "settings" after pushing my home button. I do not have settings on my screen.

After trying a couple of times to reset the device as suggested, pushing the reset button, even though the button was not marked "reset" on my device, I was successful in hearing some noises coming out of the remote, so something was happening. I tried again opening Prime but the same error message appeared. At this point I unplugged the device, waited, and plugged it in again, and it worked! The old trick of pulling the plug...came through for me this time. I can open the Prime App!

Try it!

Here's how:

  1. Press Home on your Roku remote
  2. Scroll and select Settings
  3. Select System
  4. Select Power. If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.
  5. Select System restart

I have been experiencing this issue every couple of days requiring me to restart several time. We've had Roku for years and NEVER experienced this. If we keep having to remove apps, we'll have nothing left. We literally only have 4-5 currently loaded. Why the sudden, frequent error messages?
