"Just like your computer or smartphone, your Roku TV also stores temporary data (the cache) to help apps load faster. It's like a digital shortcut; when you open an app, instead of redownloading everything from scratch, your Roku remembers certain elements, like images or login information. Over time, this cache can become cluttered, corrupted, or just plain too full. When that happens, it can lead to sluggish performance, apps freezing, audio-video sync issues,"
"To be clear, this isn't a factory reset; you won't lose your downloaded apps or login information for your various streaming services. Grab your Roku remote and: Press the Home button five times. Press the Up arrow once. Press the Rewind button twice. Press the Fast Forward button twice. If you've entered the sequence correctly, your Roku TV will freeze for a moment and then restart, clearing out that troublesome cache."
Roku launched 17 years ago in partnership with Netflix and now offers multiple streaming players and Roku TVs. Roku TVs store temporary cache data to speed app loading by remembering images and login details. Over time the cache can become cluttered or corrupted, causing sluggish performance, app freezes, audio-video sync problems, and error messages. Roku does not always provide a direct "clear cache" button like some smart TVs, but cache clearing is still possible. A soft reset via a specific remote-button sequence restarts the TV, clears the cache, and preserves downloaded apps and logins.
