How to Cold Boot Your Samsung TV

According to Samsung, over time, your television’s memory may get depleted or a residual electrical charge may accumulate inside. As a result, applications may behave improperly, menus may not appear, and the television may take a long time to turn on.

The most effective technique to resolve this is by the use of a cold boot. This completely drains the energy from the TV and completely resets the main board of the TV. To do this, press and hold the power button on your remote control until the TV turns back on. It will be obvious that it was effective when the Samsung logo appears on the screen rather than the phone going directly into the menu.

How to Factory Reset Specific Settings on Your Samsung TV

The sound, picture, or network settings of your television can all be reset at the same time if you’re having problems with a certain feature of the television, such as its sound. Consider trying this first before performing a complete factory reset because it may resolve your issue without the need for a whole new installation of the operating system.

This can be accomplished by following the steps below:

  1. Select the Settings option from the drop-down menu.
  2. Navigate to the section of the menu that you wish to restore to its default state. Consider the case of a snapshot or a recording, for example.
  3. From the left-hand navigation pane, select Expert Settings from the drop-down menu.
  4. The option to reset the page can be found at the bottom of the page.

How to Factory Reset Everything on Your Samsung TV

You have the option of totally resetting your television to factory settings. Everything will be restored to its default settings, just as it was when you first turned it on (assuming you bought it new). It is only your network settings that will not be reset during this process.

If there are any settings that you want to maintain, you should make a note of the values so that you may manually apply them once the reset is complete. There is no way to choose which settings to reset and which ones to keep after the reset is complete.
