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

I am not ready to upgrade to windows 11. Cast has always worked on windows 10 and now after an update to the Xbox Console (to replace groove music with Windows Media Player) cast no longer works. Note, this isn't isolated to my windows 10 devices. No UPnP devices (Android, IOS, etc) are able to cast to the Xbox One console.

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!

I also haven't been able to Cast to my Xbox One or Xbox One S from any of my Windows 10 devices once they got the Creators update. This is extremely frustrating as it's a feature I use daily.

Hey everyone,

Just to clarify, are you posting in regards to playing files from your PC and streaming them to your Xbox One console over DLNA, or are you posting in regards to casting your Windows 10 display over to your Xbox One console via the Wireless Display app?

Casting from Windows 10 to Xbox One is a feature made available to our Xbox Insiders through the Wireless Display app, which has not been made available to everyone quite yet. If you're a member of the

Xbox Insider program, be sure to post in our Xbox Insider forums for further assistance with that specific feature.

Keep us posted!

Hope I'm not too late to chime in on this situation but I've been experiencing this for the past several months (going back to late last year). I've been racking my brain trying to find topics on this, and trying every solution I've come across and can think of with no success. Finally my search results showed me this post for the very first time.

First off, this update is just horrible one. The "Cast To Device" feature on my PC worked perfectly for over a decade easily allowing me to send music from my PC to my Xbox 360 (past) and (now) Xbox One. Not sure why this update from Groove to Media Player was pushed on users...forgetting the fact I can no longer "cast" with Media Player on my Xbox One, Media Player does not pick up files located my PC even after directing it to the folder to search.

Also thanks to the switch from Groove to Media Player, I can no longer stream or cast anything to my Xbox One. I'm not sure if it's all related or not but I noted before this update I could cast just about any movie, music or picture file from my PC to my Xbox One. Now, none of that works at all. I've tried several streaming applications and nothing works. One platform that for sure worked in the past was JRiver Media Center. This is a program I've been using for several years now and with the switch from Groove to Media Player, I am no longer able stream music from that program to my Xbox One. JRiver Media Center has it's own DLNA server so even when (on the few occasions) Cast To Device did not work I was able to still cast using the DLNA server from JRiver Media Center, now even that doesn't work with the error given is that can't connect the device to the DLNA server although JRiver Media Center can still see and includes my Xbox One as my list of media devices. All other media devices can still be streamed to through JRiver Media Center but my Xbox One cannot.

Also to note, I never had to allow media streaming in the past in order to be able to cast music, movies, or whatever from my PC to my Xbox One. As long as my PC and Xbox One were on the same network, I never had any issues. For the sake of argument, I did allow it and tried streaming to my Xbox One using Cast To Device, Plex, TVersity and JRiver Media Center and they all failed only on my Xbox One.

Another thing, upgrading to Windows 11 is not viable solution for me even if I wanted to. Windows Update has already confirmed my PC is not compatible to upgrade to Windows 11 (main issue being my processor, Intel Core i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60Ghz, is not supported) and unless Microsoft is going to subsidize the cost of me getting a new PC, I will not be upgrading to a new PC anytime in the near future. I really hope this gains some traction and Microsoft fixes this so casting is once a thing on Xbox One for users using Windows 10. I wish there was a way to roll back so Groove can be used again. I'm become so frustrated with Media Player on Xbox I've uninstalled it because for me it's just useless...although now it seems to "nag" now that I've uninstalled it. By that I means every couple actions I do on the Xbox One, it takes me to store where it seemingly tries to get me to install. I wish that would stop too.
