Just wanted to thank you for this solution (> services.msc > Function Discovery Resource Publication (FDRP) etc). I registered for this site specifically to find a solution to my issues. I did not have to start a new post as I found this solution and it worked for me perfectly (so far!).
I have a home network of about 6 devices and a few VMs in Hyper-V (no domain controller etc) mainly linked by Ethernet (a few wifi devices). Once I started rolling out win 10 1803 network issues started. Specifically the upgraded devices were no longer discoverable (even to themselves!). However where I had hard links (such as mappings or RDP links) connections were fine. It all got confusing. But then when I set FDRP to Automatic and 'started' it all was fine. Has survived various reboots etc.
Why Microsoft, when rolling out patch 1803, set this service to manual is anyone's guess. One would have thought this would have been caught in an earlier testing stage.
Well anyway thanks again. And by the way I never used HomeGroup on any of my current machines. Glad MS did away with that pile of ******.
