Windows 10: Wireless second display

Until two days ago I‘ve been using my Windows 10 tablet as a second display for my Windows 11 laptop, connecting wirelessly. Obviously both are set up to be used in this fashion and I’ve made no changes to either device.Suddenly the devices will no longer connect. The laptop can detect the tablet but not connect. The tablet advises that the laptop is about to project but then drops out.TIA

Windows Wireless Display Adapter-not connecting anymore

Hello Phillip,

Did you notice any changes on your PC prior to the issue? I suggest that you follow the steps outlined in this support article:
Troubleshooting Wireless Display Adapters.

Since updating drivers did not work, in addition, you can try to reset the Wireless Adapter.

1. On the adapter, press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds.
2. When the message " Ready to connect "shows, open the
   Action Center.
3. Select Connect, and in the list of displays, select
   Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.

Please respond to this thread to let me know how the issue progresses. Similarly, if you have more questions, please inform me by replying to this post.
