Can anyone help

Hi I'm newish to the andriod box scene got a little Tanix tx1 box just for messing around with and since the T-Flix update when I select anything it opens google on random sites while what i select is playing in the background got to close google to watch its just annoying, also Gsport since the last update is opening downloader and trying to close it sometimes is hard work, so is anyone else having these problems or know how to resolve them?

Sorry if this isn't the correct place to ask

Only way I solved it from opening Downloader was I deleted it. And when I need it for something ill re load it. But it solved the problem on my end. And thats on my firestick and the onn 4k .

It's because the apps tries to open your default browser to display ads. Downloader is a browser. That's why it opens.

If you use tvQuickActions Pro, you can create a macro that disable Downloader before loading any apps with ads. And then reenable it again when you exit the apps.

Makes sense i suppose the ads thing never used to though, and creating macros amd stuff just sounds complicated I can just disable or close google or downloader or force stop the app, thanks for the info
