    casting windows to my divices
    « on: April 27, 2022, 08:50:34 AM »
    have win 8.1, and windows defender as security. i restored my

    computer to factory, did all the updates about 4 weeks ago do

    to different problems.
       my problem is windows keeps loosing its ability to

    find my casting devices such as google chromecast and my

    stereo. i didn't have this problem after restoring and updating

    my computer but 3 weeks in i started having this problem. the

    devices show up on my network on my other computers but not

    this one. i like to use it every night to stream movies to my

    chromecast from either vlc media player or microsoft edge but 

    they wont show my divices when i want to cast.
       i did a restore point back a week or so and regained

    casting, but lost it the next day, so ive been going back to

    that point every day, and have noticed in just a couple hours

    after going back to Whear it works, it all of a sudden stops

    showing up when i want to cast.
       when i try to cast i am online and on my network, but

    shows no divices to cast to. would appreciate any help on this

    issue as i cant figure it out. fred
