Windows 10: Casting TV screen to Laptop via WIFI?

We all know about Laptop/PC/Phone casting to TV via wifi with a smart tv and all of that jazz but is it possible do the the exact opposite on Windows 10? I can't seem to be able to find anything about being able to do cast TV screen to a Laptop. If it is possible, would it work with something like a console game?

Cast or Duplicate laptop screen on TV


Hello
I want to either duplicate or cast my laptop screen to my tv. I have acer spin 3 with windows 10 and Vizio smartTV.
I have cast on google Chrome, so from there I am able to cast to the TV. I have the cast button(link on right click), in Opera, but it does not work. Opera cannot find any Cast destinations.
On Windows side, if I search for wireless display from notifications/project area, it does not find my TV. If I click Connect in the notifications area, it does not find my TV.
The TV is listed under Other devices in my devices and printers settings, but is always disconnected.
I have attached images for this.
Please help,





Thanks

 

Casting Photos to TV via Chromecast

Hi Donald,



Thank you for the reply.



Try the steps listed below to cast Desktop screen:

• Make sure the Chromecast is connected to the TV and both the devices are On.
  
• Expand the Google Cast extension icon and select
  ‘Cast screen/window (experimental)’ option.
  
• When prompted to cast entire screen,
  Accept and click on ‘Share’.
  
• Open ‘Photos App’ to mirror photos on the PC.
  

You may search for an app that can cast your media to any
Google Cast device on your favorite search engine, and install it from the Store.
