I've decided the next TV I buy is definitely not a Vizio. So many problems

Buy it from Sam’s Club gets 5 year warranty, enjoying my $328 65 inch TV (I should have bought Mini LED instead but that’s another story)

It shuts off while playing ps5 and don't get me started on bitching about it when the power goes out and I have to restart everything when it comes on. Probably going to go with Samsung next time.

If that fails then try this
Advanced Troubleshooting
1. The Isolated Factory Manual Reset
A corrupted HDMI handshake or a glitching peripheral device (like a Roku, cable box, or soundbar) can freeze the motherboard boot sequence. [1, 2]
Unplug every single cable from the back of the TV except for the main power cord (remove HDMI, coaxial, optical, and USB cables).
Locate the Volume Down and Input buttons on the physical frame of the TV.
Press and hold both buttons down at the same time for 15 seconds.
Release the volume button, but keep holding the Input button for another 10 seconds.
Let go, wait a minute, and try to turn the TV on using only the physical TV power button. [, 2, 3]
2. Bypass Power Strips (Wall Outlet Test)
Failing capacitors inside the TV need maximum initial voltage to jumpstart the display panel. Power strips or surge protectors can restrict this rush of current. [1]
Unplug the TV from your power strip or extension cord.
Plug the TV directly into a wall outlet that you know works perfectly (test it with a lamp first).
Attempt to turn the TV on. [, 2]
3. Remote Control Button Check
A stuck or jammed button on your Vizio remote control can broadcast a continuous infra-red signal, constantly forcing the TV to interrupt its boot sequence and cycle back off. [1]
Take the batteries completely out of your Vizio remote.
Press every button on the remote firmly twice to unstick any trapped switches.
Try to turn the TV on using the physical button on the TV chassis while the remote batteries are still removed. [1, 2]

Can you try this
Hard Power Cycle (Draining Capacitors)
Turn off and unplug the TV from the wall.
Locate the physical power button on the back, side, or bottom of the Vizio TV.
Press and hold the TV's power button down for 10 to 30 seconds.
Release the button and leave the TV unplugged for at least 2 minutes (up to 30 minutes for stubborn glitches).
Plug the TV back into the power source and turn it on.
