The Force Awakens...The App, That Is
First things first, we need to give the Sling app a swift digital kick in the pants. This is where the force close comes in. No need for a Jedi mind trick, just follow these simple steps:
- Grab your trusty remote and navigate back to the Home Screen of your Samsung TV.
- Now, this might differ slightly depending on your model, but generally you'll want to scroll down and find Settings.
- Dive into the wonderful world of apps by selecting Apps.
- Find that Sling TV app lurking amongst its brethren. Click on that bad boy.
- Look for the Force Stop option. This is basically the app equivalent of a good talking to (hopefully it gets the message!).
Voila! The Sling app should now be properly shut down.
Rise and Shine, Little App
Now that the Sling app has been put in its digital time-out corner, it's time to bring it back to life.
Tip: A slow skim is better than a rushed read.
Simply head back to the Home Screen and relaunch the Sling TV app. With any luck, it should be up and running smoothly, ready to stream all your favorite shows.
Pro Tip: If you're feeling fancy, you can also try a power cycle on your entire TV. Just unplug it from the wall for about 30 seconds, then plug it back in and boot it up. This can sometimes clear out any cobwebs that might be causing issues.
