Windows 10: Cannot connect to wireless display

So here's my problem:For some time I have a Microsoft Surface Go 4 and I thought I could use it as additional display to my PC for work, etc. I bought external Wi-Fi adapter, because my PC has only Ethernet port built in motherboard. I connected both devices to the same Wi-Fi, downloaded on both Surface and PC "Wireless Display app" and first everything worked, but after a few times I can cast Surface display to PC, but when I try this with PC to Surface, my PC doesn't detect Surface. Both devices supports Miracast via GPU and Wi-Fi. I have no idea what else I can do to make it work. Any help,

:)

 

Windows Wireless Display Adapter-not connecting anymore

Hello Phillip,

Did you notice any changes on your PC prior to the issue? I suggest that you follow the steps outlined in this support article:
Troubleshooting Wireless Display Adapters.

Since updating drivers did not work, in addition, you can try to reset the Wireless Adapter.

1. On the adapter, press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds.
2. When the message " Ready to connect "shows, open the
   Action Center.
3. Select Connect, and in the list of displays, select
   Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.

Please respond to this thread to let me know how the issue progresses. Similarly, if you have more questions, please inform me by replying to this post.
