Thanks! I've been trying to figure this out for 5 straight years. Never thought to check the power settings.

OMG!!!! Thank This is one of those things that I would have gotten all frustrated over and given up after an hour of cursing Roku and television and technology. Thanks for saving me from having to use two remotes for the rest of my life!

One of these videos where you slap your head and say “Why couldn’t I figure that out?!?!” Thank you!

Bless you! My mother could not work that little remote for her new TCL TV. I tried this and BAM! She does ask me how to turn on her cable anymore.

When I get to the "Power" selection I don't see "Power On" to the right I only see "Auto power savings" and a "System restart" selections. Mine is a ROKU cube Model 4800X. Any Ideas?

Thank you so much for that my wife was trying to figure out how to do this and you made it so easy thank you so much

Wait a minute... I was with you until I tried to find POWER button listed, but it isn't there. I have an older TV, (2010 Panasonic Plasma Screen) and using an attached Roku device. Does that make a difference?

[parquerr]

Great tutorial very easy and clear instructions - Thank you so much!

[JunesTarotJourney]

Problem for me is even after a software update, there was no power choice following the instructions. Any way to find it? Hitting about brought up barely readable thing with my email address and other settings but nothing I could scroll through and no power mention at all. HELP!

May God bless you and your entire family 🎉

[TODell-sx]
