Windows 10: Windows 11 and Xbox Wireless Display

I have been using Xbox wireless display to blow things up from my PC to my TV for years now, and suddenly with the update to windows 11 this past weekend I am no longer able to connect to the Xbox and simply get the error "Connection Failed. Try again in the Action Center". Any workaround would be greatly appreciated!

Wireless Xbox One controller requires PIN for Windows 10.

Hi,

your controller by following the steps below:

• Power off the controller by pressing and holding the Xbox button on the controller for 6 seconds.
• Press the Xbox button again to power it back on.
• Connect your Xbox Wireless Controller to your PC using a USB cable or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

You can also update your Bluetooth drivers by following the steps on this
