TV Requiring Set Up Every Day

Each day when the tv is first turned on, it is requiring set up FROM THE BEGINNING. Entering phone information, downloading menus/apps, pairing remote, having to re-log in to streaming services.  Why is this happening?

Hi xf_user, that would get pretty old fast, so I get why you're coming to our Forum for help. I have your back and will do all that I can to help. I don't have a quick explanation or fix, but I'd love to work more on this with you. Is this issue impacting a specific TV, and if so, are you able to test the TV Box on a different TV?

I will investigate another tv. In the meantime... when I did daily updates before, the tv processed it - then went back to what I was watching. Now it shuts down. Try to turn it back on and....nothing. Could this be a case of needing a new cable box??  Will a local store exchange it for me?

It could be an issue with the TV box, and you should have no problem swapping it with another box at a local Xfinity Store. You can use the Store Locator to help if needed, which will show the address, hours, and option to book an appointment if you'd like.

Just want to add more info in case it might help somebody...  One night as a test, I skipped the daily update process to see what would happen. Next morning — no issues when I turned on the TV.  There seems to be something in the daily update process that is causing everything to reset to initial account set up.  ??????????
