Re: Can’t update software
No
i see message "software update required" AFTER having "successfully" updated.
It advises it will complete update after putting into standby (which I understand is switching off).
Thanks

Hi @MFC That sounds like a message from your TV (not the Sky Q box). Use your TV remote. I would upload an image of the message if you are not sure.

Re: Can’t update software
Hi @MFC You are already on the latest software. All you are doing is rebooting the box. There should never be a need to update the software, because it updates automatically. People have been complaining about that misleading text for over 10 years.
