    Cast to doesn't work from Win 10 Creator's Update


    Before the creator's update a couple weeks back I used the Cast to feature daily to send video to the Xbox One. Ever since the update it doesn't function. It doesn't fail, it just searches endlessly and never finds the xbox. I have an Xbox One and a One
    S. I also have more than one Windows 10 device. The result is the same no matter the combination of devices that I use. Can anybody point me in the direction of a fix for this problem!?

    Thanks

    :)

    Xbox "cast to device" from PC Windows 10 no longer works.

    yes, this function ceased to work since the creators update. This has nothing do with insiders. it was function of windows 10 / edge. The option is present in edge to "cast media to device" and I would use to send video (via the browser) from PC's to the
    xbox360.

    since the creator's update, as stated the PC's do NOT find the xbox360 so that you can cast the media to it...

    this is really annoying cause the feature (although wasn't the best working) was extremely useful!

    HELP - CASTING ISSUES

    I am also having this issue, I think the March update has limited devices you can cast from. Also 'go to TV on start' doesn't work.

    Hey there Tryggr,

    Have you tried to power cycle your internet connection to see if that helps? It's possible that the network needs to be refreshed in order for it to pop up again.

    Hi Mister Mascot,

    Thank you for taking the time to comment on what is a strangely dead thread. I can't believe I'm the only person seeing this.

    The Surface and Xbox are both on the LAN, so they aren't going through the Internet connection to make this happen. The Xboxes are in different buildings and both are hard wired. I've tried Cast to from the workstations when they are both wired and wireless,
    both have the same failure. I've also been trying this over the course of a couple weeks, so all the hardware has been rebooted multiple times.

    Any other thoughts?/suggestions?

    Thanks,

  6. No problem, happy to jump in and thanks for helping to clarify the setup a bit more. Have you tried to restart the Router or Switch that they're hooked up into at all? Are the devices able to see each other on your network currently to transfer files or
    anything like that?

    Yes this is not a function of the network, the only change has been the creator's update. I'm experiencing the same issue and I have restart my routers/gateways. The feature would find any devices on the network, but now only seem to find Bluetooth devices
    that were previously connected to the pc.

    I really hope this isn't yet another good feature that Microsoft deprecated. Really frustrating...
