I've been trying to cast my windows 10 laptop's sreen (not just videos but the whole desktop and everything) to my xbox one cause that's connected to my TV (not a smart TV, just normal HD TV so I can't cast directly to the TV itself). I found out I needed a thing called miracast wich I couldn't find so I installed insider hub on my xbox one (heard it makes miracast available) but it didn't help, I can't see miracast anywhere. Is there any way to cast my desktop to my xbox one?

    Hi Microsoft Agent,

    your answer won't help anyone at all. The question is how to connect to a PC to Xbox One but not how to use Miracast with a lower version of windows. The guy even mentioned he uses windows 10.

    Would be nice if you can make any contribute instead of copying "relevant" answers from elsewhere.

    I think you got me wrong. I want to project my screen to my xbox one. Not my TV cause it's not possible and I'm not gonna pay $70-80 for an adapter. I'd like to project my sreen to my xbox one. Please read my question again. I can stream my xbox one screen to my pc but I can't find a way to project my desktop to my xbox one. Is it possible?

    Hello,

    If your PC came with Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 and your wireless display supports Miracast, you’re ready to add the wireless display to your PC to complete the connection, and start projecting.

    However, if you upgraded your PC from an older version of Windows, you'll need to make sure your PC supports Miracast and is ready to project. Also, if the display you'll project to doesn’t support Miracast, you’ll need to set up the display by adding an extra piece of hardware to it before you can start projecting.

    You can visit this article to know more details about it. The article applies to Windows 8.1 but still applicable in Windows 10.

    You can also follow the steps below on how you can check if your computer supports Miracast.

    1. Press ‘Win+R’ on your keyboard and then type in ‘dxdiag’ and hit Enter.
    2. Press the ‘Save all Information’ button located at the bottom and save the text file at the desired locations.
    3. Now open the text file and look for ‘Miracast’ and next to it will be the current availability status.

    Let us know if that worked out for you.

    Hi,

    You’ll be needing an application that support wireless display casting to project your laptop’s screen to your Xbox One. To guide you on what application to use and how to set it up, it would be best if you post this concern on the Xbox forum.

    Feel free to reach out to us for further concerns.
