    Unable to project PC screen to TV

    Hi Saidy,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are not able to project the PC screen to TV. It would be great if you can answer these questions to assist you in a better way.

    1. What is the make and model of the PC and TV?
    2. What happens when you try to project to TV?
    3. Were you able to project the laptop screen to TV earlier?

    Miracast is a wireless technology your PC can use to project your screen to TVs, projectors, and streaming media players that also support Miracast. You can use this to share what you’re doing on your
    PC, present a slide show, or even play your favorite game on a larger screen.

    I suggest you refer and follow the suggestions from
    Fix connections to wireless displays or docks


    Additional Information:

    Project to a wireless display with Miracast.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,

    Zaki
