When trying to select "Remove device" the system says: Sorry this device cant be removed now

when deleting from downloads

Short summary:

  1. Open the Netflix app on your device.
  2. Go to the "Downloads" section within the app.
  3. If you see an error message stating that you have removed too many devices, try again later.
  4. If the issue persists, you can manually delete all downloads directly on your device using the Netflix app.
  5. Navigate to the "Downloads" section within the Netflix app.
  6. Look for an option to delete or remove downloads.
  7. Select this option to delete all downloads from your device.
  8. Once all downloads are removed, try downloading episodes again.

Top answer

The error message you sent me at the beginning of this chat means you've removed too many devices with downloads from your Netflix profile. Try again later, or delete all downloads directly on the device using the Netflix app.

Yes, I had the same problem. I contacted Netflix support through their website and they helped me resolve it.
