How did you get netword folders to show up in the first place? The TV only supports DLNA

Apologies. I was referring to WIndows Media Sharing sharing lists appearing as folders in Smartshare.I have since discovered now that turning off the WMP sharing service on each computer on the network cleared them from the Smartshare list of devices.

      Popup messages: Wired Lan cable disconnected / Wired network is connected
      By John Bizeray
      I recently updated the firmware on my  LG43UH610V.  Now I constantly get "Wired Lan cable disconnected" / "Wired network is connected" messages even while watching a video file from my NAS. The TV is connected and using the network while getting these messages. It has always been on a fixed IP address on the LAN.

      No apps will work - "check network connection, connection to the server is unstable -102" even though network is fine
      By ACTX111
      Title says it all.  Install a new 50 inch LG tv.  For every app and App Store it displays that message.  I have a great network and the TV is approx 30 feet from the wifi router.  It will play TV (not sure if that is coming over the air) and the phone app sees and can control the TV but not one app will work?
      Any ideas or just return it?
      Thanks

      LG Expands Global HVAC Training Network to Nurture Locally Tailored Expertise
      By News Reporter
      Company Builds Sustainable Growth by Empowering Local Talent and
      Advancing Technical Excellence in HVAC

      SEOUL, May 27, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is strengthening the competitiveness of its heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) business by expanding its global training infrastructure. Through its growing network of LG HVAC Academies, the company is establishing new facilities and upgrading existing ones in key markets including Thailand, China, Indonesia and France – each offering specialized training programs designed to meet the specific needs of local professionals and industries.
      In January 2025, LG officially opened a new LG HVAC Academy in Bangkok, Thailand. Relocated from the Thonburi Service Center to the Sathon business district, the upgraded facility is certified by Thailand’s Department of Skill Development and can train up to 1,700 HVAC professionals annually. Its comprehensive curriculum covers a range of areas including heating and cooling system design, installation, maintenance, troubleshooting and safety control. Graduates who pass final assessments receive nationally recognized technical certifications.
      In March, LG launched its second HVAC Academy in China, adding a new facility in Shenzhen to complement the existing Tianjin location, which reopened in 2023. Situated in one of China’s key innovation and industrial hubs, the Shenzhen academy features lecture halls, a product showroom and a Smart Home zone. The site will play a pivotal role in promoting LG’s strategic HVAC offerings and deepening customer engagement in the Chinese market.
      Also in March, LG reopened its newly relocated and expanded HVAC Academy in Jakarta, Indonesia. Now located in the southern part of the city, the two-floor facility includes lecture and practice rooms on the first floor, and a product showroom on the second floor showcasing HVAC solutions for residential, commercial and hospitality applications. The third floor houses Hi-M Solutek, LG’s training partner specializing in maintenance education. This practical, hands-on environment helps local dealers and partners enhance their technical capabilities and service excellence.
      In Europe, LG commenced operations at its new HVAC Academy in Lyon, France, in mid-May 2025. As LG’s second training center in France – following the first academy in Paris – the Lyon facility offers hands-on training zones and a dedicated product showroom. An adjacent LG office will collaborate closely with the academy to support the company’s regional business development.
      LG’s HVAC Academies are vital hubs for technical training and business support, playing a key role in the company’s global B2B strategy. By the end of 2025, LG aims to operate 70 academies worldwide, collectively training approximately 37,000 HVAC professionals each year.
      “Our global education infrastructure is designed to foster mutual growth, supporting local talent to be their best while strengthening LG’s leadership in the global HVAC market,” said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company.

      Why is my LG TV SmartShare (Media Player) program randomly changes to Sharing OFF on Windows 10?
      By wallyricks
      I have owned a couple of LG TV’s over the last 8 years, with the current one being a high-end 77” model.
      I am still using LG TV SmartShare (v.33) as my “Media Player” v2.3.1511.1201 for my PC– which was last updated in 2015 but it is still compatible today.  As proof, my latest TV is now 11 months old and I have had zero issue (until you see below).    
      link hidden, please login to view My PC setup is: Windows 10 Pro (with all latest updates) and a TP-Link Archer BE19000 (BE805) router.    NOTHING has been changed on my router, TV (no updated or changed firmware) or any equipment moved around in the last 4 months.
      Up until about 3 weeks ago, everything ran just fine.  The SmartShare program was always defaulted to have Sharing ON, upon start of it, which is always when Windows boots).  However, about 3 weeks ago, the SmartShare PC program has started to randomly change its status to Sharing OFF.  I would then have to go into the program, manually change it to ON and then it works anywhere for 30 minutes up to 20 hours, and again, randomly change the Sharing to OFF.
      I am an experienced PC user, and I am very sure that this has nothing to do with my WIFI because it’s not a dropped connection or random TV not being found.   Something is happening inside Windows 10 that is triggering this status change.  And it never fluctuates back to Sharing ON by itself.
      Being so frustrated, I actually updated the Router to the latest firmware a few days ago, but this problem continues as before.
      As an experiment, I installed an alternate Media Server program called Serviio.  One can also see that when my Sharing changes to OFF, the two green lights turn red.
      Anyone have an idea of what can be happening after nearly 8 years of not experiencing this?       I am guessing that Windows is triggering some “Service” to stop running, but what can it be?
