You can check this by going to Home > Menu > Settings > Support > Software Update. You may also want to further optimize performance with the self-diagnostic tool, which checks memory, frees up unused cached memory, and closes background apps. Go to: Home > Menu > Settings > Support > Device Care > Start Device Care. If you need further assistance, we would be happy to help! Please feel free to contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, available from 8 AM to 12 AM EST, seven days a week. You can also chat with us on Samsung.com for immediate assistance. ~Samsung Pro

Cliff, Samsung remotes are designed to be convenient and useful, but we understand if you’d prefer to use a third-party remote, whether it’s a universal remote, a game controller, or something else! Whether you are replacing a lost remote or using an alternative remote to help reduce clutter, a third-party remote is a great option to use to control your Samsung TV. If you need further assistance, we would be happy to help! Please feel free to contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, available from 8 AM to 12 AM EST, seven days a week.
