Sky Q apps not working.

For about a week now I have had several Sky Q apps not loading. Discovery +, Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max and Prime Video. 

I have done all the resets/refreshes available many times. 

Re-boots of Sky box and internet connection more than once. 

The sky settings show good satellite and internet connections. 

Anyone have any ideas or fixes please?

@Brianr65 do you get any error messages ?

 

you could try refreshing the apps in the engineers menu

To enter the engineers menu do the follow
press the home button then scroll down to setting and hi-light
do not press select/enter but press 001 then select this takes you into the engineers menu

scroll down to apps > refresh

Hi laing1

Yes I've tried the engineer 001 thing several times to no avail. 

No error messages as such. All it says is 'sorry we can't start the Discovery+ app' or Disney+ etc.
