    WiFi Direct Windows10 UWP Win32


    I'm trying to call WinRT library in a win32 application to implement a file transferring function with wifi direct.

    the function WiFiDirectDevice.FromIdAsync(connectionRequest.DeviceInformation.Id) works well in the UWP application, but it always returns null in the win32 application,

    can anybody tell me what the problem was?

    :)

    Hostednetwork for wifi-direct

    Hi, really hoping we can find an answer to your question...

    In my case, I too have enabled a hosted network using the netsh commands, but my android devices are unable to connect to it...always giving an "authentication error"...the password entered is definitely correct however. I have successfully used Connectify on the computer and connected my devices to it, BUT I am looking for a native solution because this desktop I am using is quite a dinosaur and the Connectify services and interface severely tax my system resources.

    The reason I am zeroing in on Wifi Direct functions like you are is because Connectify includes an option for "Prefer Wifi Direct" for connections....enabling THAT option is the only way for my devices to use my Connectify hotspot. Again though, I would like to stop relying on Connectify and instead enable this functionality via the Command Line

    Actually Kofoed, I suggest you try Connectify, it may just be the answer you are looking for, but for me, I'm hoping for guidance on controlling/enabling Wifi Direct via netsh commands and the like, in conjunction with the hosted network functionality.

    Thanks

    WiFi Direct on a airplane?

    I don't want WiFi; I want WiFi Direct so I can use my Shield Controller with my Shield Tablet. The flights I'm going on don't even offer WiFi.

  4. WiFi Direct Windows10 UWP Win32

    Microsoft Adds Ability to Block Win32 Apps from Install on Windows 10

    That's actually a certainty already. Microsoft wants to create a competing product against Chromebook. I'm sure this is one of the features that bring them closer to that.

    UWP is "significantly slower" than Win32. Probably 10-30%. UWP is completely managed (memory pointers are forbidden) like .NET Framework is. They're very closely linked. UWP can be made to run on any processor architecture (ARM, x86, and AMD64 right now). I believe UWP has a path for emulating Win32 too (they demonstrated this in a Windows Phone 10 feature).
