If LAN Peers are not found on Windows (SSDP issue)

If a user faces the SSDP issues on Windows OS, she/he should follow the instructions here:

Symptom: LAN Peers are not found on Windows

Solution: Windows has the ability to run its own SSDP multicast group. When this service is running, all the received multicast traffic gets "swallowed" by the service.
To solve this, go to "Services>SSDP Discovery>Properties>[startup type]=disabled or Manual". After this, you will need to stop the service from running by right-clicking on the service "SSDP Discovery" and click "Stop"
