Windows 10: Help getting wireless display to work in Windows 10.

I have a surface pro 2017 that I'm trying to get setup as a wireless display for when I'm working on my desktop. I have everything setup on my SP, but when I go to the connect option on my desktop it says "This PC or mobile device doesn't support miracast."

I've run dxdiag and it says that miracast is supported. I've tried connecting my desktop to the local network via ethernet and via a wifi dongle (netgear a6210).

My current desktop setup is:

Gigabyte z97x-SLI

I5-4690k

rx480 8GB

8GB RAM

I'm at a loss here and any help would be appreciated.

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.
