Microsoft Wireless Display adaptor - Not detected in MSWDP App

Hi,

I found my old MSWDA and tried to connect it to see if it still was worth using.

Connected to secondary Monitor, starts fine, and makes it to the Ready to connect screen.

Win + K on my Win 11 PC, and it finds and connects to the 2nd monitor without issue.

I then installed the Microsoft Wireless Display APP from the MS Store, then I opened the app, but it doesn't find the adaptor that I've clearly installed as the display is duplicated to my 2nd monitor, and no matter how manner times I hit refresh, the APP never finds my adaptor?

Steps I've taken to try and fix so far include...

Reset the Adaptor - Pushed reset button on adaptor for 15 secs, no change except adaptor name has changed back to the default name.

Removed and reinstalled the adaptor from my devices, no change

Allowed APP through my Firewall, no change.

Would anyone else be able to advise further steps to try, please?

Adaptor v1.3 cant get it to be detected to update to v2

Windows 11 build 22593 (have also tried on a Clean Win 10 install)

Thanks

Paul
