Can't Update Android System WebView

on Chromecast with Google TV - Can't Update Android System WebView (version Sep 14, 2022)... Continually fails. I have tried Restart through the GUI - as well as a few cold boots.. This Chromcast won't update this App.

I have two other identical units that update without issues - so not a network problem

A little help please.

Do you have external storage for your Chromecast?  If so, this can be the cause of this since you have to go into developer mode to enable this.  If you have developer mode turned on, turn it off and see if the app updates correctly.

No external storage implemented  - and I have not put the device into ''developer mode'... What is the process for putting it into developer mode?... If I put it into 'dev-mode' - and then turn off dev mode (playing fool the hardware) - perhaps I can get it to update...
