Getting error message: Upgrade failure. Please restart the application

Looks like there are many many customers have this same issue that started about 5 days ago. Please help! Nothing I've tried has fixed it. Restarting white box, etc.

Thanks for reaching out. An upgrade failure usually means the app you’re trying to access couldn’t open or update to the latest version. This is often caused by a poor internet connection, corrupted temporary data, or a temporary glitch.

 

To fix this issue quickly, try the following steps:

  1. Force Stop the App: Go to Settings on your Fire TV > Applications > Manage Installed Applications. Select the app that is failing, and click Force stop.
  2. Clear the App Cache: In the same menu, select Clear cache to remove corrupted temporary files that block the update.
  3. Restart the Fire Stick: Unplug the power cable from the back of the device, wait at least one minute, and plug it back in to reboot
