TiVo Pending Restart

 

Manually Restart the TiVo

Pending Restart displays when TiVo downloaded an updated software version, and is waiting for a period of inactivity to install the update 
  • TiVo looks for a four hour inactivity window with no recordings scheduled and no remote use, before installing the update
     
  • To force the software update install, manually restart the TiVo
     
  • Once the TiVo restarts, the software downloads, which may take up to an hour

Pending Restart means your TiVo downloaded a software update and is waiting to install it, but you can install it right away by manually restarting the TiVo.
