Is your Roku suddenly throwing a 'Not Enough Memory' error? Don't panic! It's a common issue, and often easily fixed. Think of your Roku like a phone – it has limited storage. Over time, cached data, unused channels, and background processes can hog that space.
Here's how to reclaim your Roku's memory and get back to streaming:
* **Remove Unused Channels:** This is the quickest win. Delete channels you no longer use. Navigate to 'Home,' highlight the channel, press the '*' button, and select 'Remove channel.'
* **Restart Your Roku:** A simple restart can clear temporary files. Go to 'Settings' > 'System' > 'System restart.'
* **Clear the Cache:** While Roku doesn't have a direct 'clear cache' button, restarting often helps. You can also try accessing hidden menus by pressing Home 5 times, Up, Right, Down, Left, Up. Look for options that mention 'developer settings' or 'cache clearing', but proceed with caution and research any options before selecting them. Some older models may not have this.
* **Consider a Factory Reset (Last Resort):** This will erase everything and return your Roku to its original state. Only do this if other methods fail. Find the option in 'Settings' > 'System' > 'Advanced system settings' > 'Factory reset.'
By following these steps, you can usually resolve the 'Not Enough Memory' error and get back to enjoying your favorite Roku content!
