I have been casting to my LG Smart TV for months using the 'Cast Tab' in Chrome, but my TV is no longer there and it cannot find my Chromecast device. The device appeared in Google Home, but now it has also disappeared. I have restarted the device several times, but I still cannot locate it. HELP!

Reboot all devices by unplugging them from the main power grid for about 5 minutes then plug them back in.
If you still have problems, hard reset the Chromecast device.
If your TV has Chromecast built-in, navigate to the system apps, find the Chromecast built-in application and clean its cache.

Thank you for your help DJ.
Unplugging the devices and rebooting didn't work, but once I found the little button on the side of my Chromecast and held it in until the light turned white (maybe that's the hard reset you suggested?) , I finally had the Chromecast set-up screen on my TV.
I appreciate your help my friend!
