Connect a Windows PC

Another Windows 10 or 11 PC can project to AeroCast with Win + K.

Install the Wireless Display feature

Android and Windows senders reach AeroCast through Windows' own Miracast receiver, which is an optional Windows feature called Wireless Display.

• AeroCast offers to install it when it starts and the feature is missing. Choosing Install shows one Windows permission prompt, then downloads the feature from Windows Update. This can take a few minutes.
• You can also install it yourself: Settings, System, Optional features, Add a feature, Wireless Display.

If the download seems stuck, restart the PC and try again, or check that Windows Update works.

Allow projecting to this PC

In Windows Settings, System, Projecting to this PC, set the first option to Available everywhere (or Available everywhere on secure networks).

Project from the other PC

1. Press Win + K on the sending PC.
2. Choose the entry ending in (AeroCast).
3. Approve the request on the receiving PC if AeroCast is set to ask.

Both PCs need Wi-Fi turned on. Miracast does not work over a wired-only connection.
