Windows 10: Windows 11 Stuck on Virtual Display

Hello everyone, I'm facing a perplexing issue with Windows 11 and could really use some help. Following a recent power outage, my system's settings, including the IP address, were unexpectedly altered. I have two displays – a physical monitor and a virtual display I've been using for remote access. Since the outage, Windows 11 seems stuck on the virtual display during boot-up, leaving the physical monitor blank. Even attempting to access Safe Mode hasn't worked, as it doesn't show up on the original monitor either. I've also attempted to connect to a secondary monitor with no success. Accessin

Windows 7 virtual wifi authentication mode

Hello.

Just a quick question to whoever is using windows 7 virtual wifi capability - when you type in "netsh wlan show hostednetwork", cmd window displays a list of settings for your hosted virtual wifi.

I was wondering, is there a way to change authentication method from WPA2-Personal to simple WEP ?

Cheers.

 

Surface 3 as virtual display, stuck at "MainPCname is about to project"

Hi Riccardo,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

I appreciate your efforts to work on this issue.

Please answer this question to get clarity on this issue:

• Were you able to use the Surface Pro 3 as wireless display previously?
  

Meanwhile, let us follow these steps on the main PC and check if that helps.

1. Open Device Manager.
   
2. Open the View menu in Device Manager and select the "Show hidden devices" option.
   
3. Expand the Network Adapters section.
   
4. Look for the "Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter".
   
5. Right click on any of the adapters where you see a warning icon (yellow triangle with an exclamation point) and select uninstall.
   
6. Click the Ok button to confirm.
   
7. Restart your computer once the driver is uninstalled. The default and generic drivers will be installed automatically.
   

Once restarted, use the Project menu (Win + P keys) to connect to your wireless display.

Click on Turn Windows features on or off in the left menu;

Enable Hyper-V in the list of features and click OK to install;

Now the virtualization should work;

Hope this helps, see you soon!
