    I cannot project from my phone to my laptop.


    Whenever I'm opening the "Projecting to this PC" setting its showing Add the "Wireless Display" optional feature to project to this PC. But I've already installed it and when I close the settings and open settings again it shows the same thing.

    Projecting Motorola E5 to laptop

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you want to connect your Moto E5 phone to your PC.



    Ensure that both the devices are connected to same network and then follow the steps mentioned below to project your android phone to PC.



    1. Press Windows + I key to open
      Settings.
    2. Click on System and then click
      Projecting to this PC      .
    3. Under Some Windows and Android devices can project to this PC when you say it’s OK select the drop down to
      Available everywhere.
    4. Now under Ask to project to this PC select
      First time only.
    5. Under Require PIN for pairing select
      Never.
    6. Now under This PC can be discovered for projection only when it’s plugged into a power source toggle the switch to On/Off.


    Once you set these settings follow the steps below.



    1. Press Windows + S key together and type
      Connect.
    2. Now open Settings on your
      Phone       and click on Connected devices.
    3. Then select Cast and choose the
      PC       name


    Now you should be able to see the phone screen on your PC.
