Windows 10: Windows 10 laptop won't connect wireless to Samsung Smart TV

I've searched through other threads on here with similar issues and did some basic troubleshooting like checking for out-of-date drivers on my laptop and whatnot and still can't get this to work. My laptop running Windows 10 and Samsung UN55MU6290 TV are both on the same wi-fi network but I can't get them to connect to mirror my laptop screen on the TV screen. Initially when I first started playing around with this last month my TV was showing up on my Devices screen but didn't pop up when it was searching for available devices after clicking both the Project and Connect options under Action

Connect a desktop pc to a Samsung smart tv

I'm trying to connect a older Desktop pc with Window 10 to my Samsung f8000 smart tv via wifi or LAN. My desktop pc is ethernet cabled to the Sky home hub and the smart tv ethernet cabled to the hub as well. My smart tv appears in the connected devices
list but it doesn't seem to connecting, is it because I need a wireless dongle??

 

Connecting Wireless Display to Samsung Smart TV- Problem

I recently purchased a 32 inch Samsung Smart TV. I tried to mirror an HP laptop to Smart TV but to no avail. I tried the connect wireless option with no success. However, the TV recognizes laptop's attempts to connect. The tv blinks for a while and the "loading'
sign appears. But after that, the aerial TV channel broadcast resumes, meaning that screen mirroring just failed. It happens like this everytime. I have tried dozens of times but I have failed. What should I do? I need to mirror my laptop because that is one
of the reasons I purchased a smart TV with a large screen. I also tried installing a Samsung Smart TV app for windows but the app requests a pin from the TV and the TV does not provide the pin. What should I do? Please help.

Not able to Connect laptop to Samsung Smart TV for screen mirroring

Hello,

Have you tried adding the Smart TV as wireless display at Start -> Settings -> Devices -> Bluetooth & other Device?

What exactly happens when you press Windows key + P or click Action Center > Connect?

Regards.
