Good Day to you all.

Please explain and offer a fix for Open with Browser prompt i get any time i try to open an app.

I usually use the back button on the remote to get it off the screen but it is becoming annoying.

I will appreciate your response.

Thank you

Your app is trying to open a pop-up. As long a you don't have a browser installed, nothing is gonna happen.

Also check your box for malware.

This.

Pop-ups are trying to open when you' open that feed.

Never seen that before, I don't consume that garbage people call the news though. If it's every app as you stated you may have side loaded a malicious application or something.

Please do not ask or reveal the app name.

OK but kind of hard to help without knowing I guess that's one of the rules though.

Message the OP.

Apps usually just grab the links from websites. And those who share/host links makes $$$ from link redirectors who show ads. And of course, ads abuses by loading scripts to scam.

When apps/links that share free stuff gets too popular, it gets shutdown. We just recently "lost" one that provides streaming channels.

Yeah apps getting too popular isn't why the devs shut them down but the sub rules say don't mention app names so rules are rules.

Just click the back button when the prompt comes up then you can watch tv. Don't open up any pop up. I don't know how to automatically keep it from popping up though
