I've tried connecting to my Roku TV with screen mirroring, but nothing will work. I've tried every solution, disabling firewall, making network private, changing device permissions on Roku, nothing. If there is another solution, I would like to try it!
Yes, you must be on a private network. Next, what version of Windows are you using? Third, are you using a laptop or desktop PC? I have found you cannot screen project your computer if it's a desktop PC that doesn't have a wireless network adapter. Windows uses Miracast to connect to a Roku, and Miracast requires a wireless network adaptor on the computer, even if it's connected to a wired network.
For whatever reason, I have been completely unsuccessful connecting my Windows 11 laptop to any of my Roku devices. The computer sees the Roku and attempts to connect, but the connection fails and it goes back to the main screen. I just tried a laptop with Windows 10, and it connected just fine. But not with the Windows 11 computer.
i dont know why it has to be so hard to connect my lap top to the roku tv! It was working before but no longer. Why wont it stay on default? i always have to keep going to connect to 'Add Devices' to add roku tv on my windows 11 lap top whenever i want to watch a movie on laptop from tv! Why wont it stay permament on there. Now it doesnt even connect at all. You need to fix this feature in the tv's because its incovenient and you should know by now after all the problems that people have with this how its a defect and needs to be fixed! And if its not Roku to blame,then its Microsoft edge.

OK, it works fine for me with those same two. Does your Roku appear in a list of available devices to mirror to on the computer? Does the computer show any other available devices to mirror to? For example, when I do that on my network, I see several different TVs, all of my Roku devices, my Nvidia Shield players, and some other stuff. If you see nothing else, you either have a very limited selection of devices on your network or there's something that isn't set correctly on your network.

They dont have a clue. The best thing to do is buy another better brand of tv that will connect to a lap top.
