Unfortunately, the Sony STR-K790 receiver is not programmable with most universal remote controls. This is because it uses a proprietary communication protocol instead of the standard IR codes used by most universal remotes.

There are a few workarounds you can try:

Use the original Sony remote control: If you still have the original remote control for the STR-K790, you can use that to control the receiver.

Use a Sony universal remote control: Some Sony universal remote controls are pre-programmed to work with the STR-K790. You can find a list of compatible remote controls on the Sony website.

Use a smartphone app: There are a few smartphone apps that can be used to control Sony receivers. These apps typically use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to communicate with the receiver, so they will work even if the receiver is not programmable with IR codes.

If you're still having trouble finding a way to control the STR-K790 with a universal remote, you can contact Sony customer support for help.
