Windows 10: Unable to see miracast toolbar on Windows 11

The miracast toolbar is normally present at the top of the screen of the host device, and it allows the user to end the connection or change the casting mode to gaming, watching videos, or working. My problem is that the toolbar is no longer present on the top of the screen and there is no other place in the system where you can change the miracast casting mode, not even the ctrl+S settings screen on the connect app. I am casting from a windows 11 laptop to a windows 10 laptop and there is no toolbar, while when casting from the 10 device to the 11 device the toolbar is as expected, present on

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to play videos using Miracast. We will help you to resolve the issue.

I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the driver and check if it helps.

Steps to uninstall and reinstall driver.

• Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
• In the list of devices, you should see the Miracast driver.
• Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
• In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
• In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes”
  option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.
