Windows 10: Windows 11 casting to Xbox One

When using the cast functionality Win+K to cast to Xbox One, windows will connect and immediately disconnect. Opening the Wireless Display app on Xbox One will reveal 'XboxOne' as a display to connect to on Windows. I am able to cast to other display devices such as my smart TV. I am also able to cast other windows devices such as my laptop to the Xbox One Wireless Display app. What can I do to prevent the cast function from immediately disconnecting from the xbox?

Windows 10 cannot Cast to XBOX One

Hello,

Please see my responses to your questions in italic.

Have you checked if your drivers are updated?

Drivers are all up to date, however if you specify one in particular then I will check again.

Were there any changes made before casting your XBOX One to your laptop?

Windows 10 done an automatic update and restart without permission recently. I can only assume that this was because of the creators update silently downloading. Also, note that I am casting
from my laptop to my XBOX one. Not casting my XBOX to my laptop as you have stated above.

What troubleshooting steps have you done so far? Steps taken are detailed in the problem above.

Thanks,

Kevin

 

Windows Media Player 12 Not Casting

Hello. I have the same problem as the original poster. I am able to cast individual songs to Marantz receiver, but I cannot cast playlists.

Here are some additional details. I have Windows 10 and WMP12.

To cast a song in WMP12 I do the following:

1. right click song

2. select "Cast to Device"

3. select Marantz receiver (I have other device which also appear on list of options to cast to)

When I right click a playlist, and select "Cast to Device", the only option that comes up is "Cast to Device". In other words, "cast to device" appears a second time, none of my devices appear as in step 3 above when only trying to cast an individual song.

I also, after applying the suggest resolutions noted in the posts above, I tried creating a new test playlist, but I couldn't cast that playlist either.

Are there any additional steps I can take to resolve this?

Thank you.
