Hi Penny Wells,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

This issue can occur if there is pending firmware update or the issue with the drivers. I would suggest you to follow the below steps and let us know about the results:

Method 1: Fix connections to wireless displays or docks.


I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in the Microsoft article on
