LG Control Center

LG Control Center is a software that helps you change PC Settings, Power Settings, Windows Security Settings, etc. as well as check current system information.

Tip:

LG Control Center is provided with the UWP app and it can be downloaded again on the Microsoft Store if it is deleted. If you want to download the files again, connect to the Microsoft Store, search for LG Control Center and install them.

When launching the UWP app for the first time, you may not be able to run the app through the hotkeys. This problem is caused by the delayed registration of the startup program of the UWP app. If this problem occurs, run the app directly and use the hotkeys for normal operation.

The menus displayed in LG Control Center and its supported functions may differ depending on the model.

The figures herein are subject to change without prior notice.
