Roku lacks a simple, one-click way to clear the cache from the settings menu, in contrast to certain other smart TVs. By restarting the system, you can still erase the cache on your Roku device. Any Roku device, including streaming sticks, set-top boxes, and smart TVs with Roku services, can use this technique. The steps you must take are as follows:
To access Settings on your Roku TV, navigate to the home screen and scroll down.
Choose System from the Settings menu.
After that, select Power by scrolling down, and then System Restart.
The cache will be cleared when your Roku TV reboots.
You can also unhook your Roku TV from its HDMI and USB ports (if you’re using a Roku Stick) or unplug the power wire from the wall outlet if your Roku TV remote isn’t working. After 30 seconds of waiting, plug everything back in and switch on the TV.
Other solutions for Roku playback problems
Playback problems might be resolved by restarting your Roku device. To verify the health of your internet connection, click to Settings > Network > Info > verify Connection on your Roku device if you’re still having issues. Try looking for pending updates if your internet is functioning properly but a particular channel or app isn’t loading. Here’s how:
Using the Roku remote, press the Home button.
To update a faulty app or channel, navigate to it.
To access the Settings menu, use the Star button.
The “Check for Updates” option should be selected.
You can try uninstalling and reinstalling the app or channel if updating it doesn’t work. To accomplish this, pick the app or channel you wish to delete, click the Star button, and then select “Remove Channel” from the menu. After the channel has been deleted, locate it by scrolling down to “Streaming Channels,” then reinstall it.
Remember that if you’re having trouble streaming with a certain app, it can be their fault. Therefore, it’s a good idea to check for any widespread outages on the service provider’s website.
