    What does "Cast to device" mean?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    I am sorry to know that you are unable to connect PC and smart phone to a Smart TV.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • What is the make and model of the Smart TV ?
    • How are you trying to connect Smart TV to the PC?
    Refer the manual which comes with Smart TV for more information about how to connect TV to a PC.

    I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

    Press the Connect button in the action center to find your device. Windows 10 usually finds devices automatically when you plug them in or turn them on. If it doesn't, follow these steps:


    • In the search box on the taskbar, type devices.

    • From the list of search results, select Devices.

    • Select Add a device.
    Once you are able to find the device then use the Cast to device option to Stream the files.

    For reference:
