Features, settings & updates

[Mobius187]

I recently setup a Roku 4K Streaming Stick on a standard LCD TV, connecting to its HDMI port. No issues using the Roku 4K Streaming Stick to connect to the internet via the home wireless router. What I would like to do is "cast" from my Windows 10 PC to the Roku 4K Streaming Stick. Previously I was able to do so using Google Chromecast via the Google Chrome browser, so I know my PC can send its display via the home wireless router.

However, the only "How To" video I came across mentioned using the Display option, then selecting "Connect to a wireless display". That's all well and good... except I don't have that feature. Or simply what the "How To" video shows is not the same as my Windows 10 o/s shows. For reference, the video was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Sf2OVjtlQk

My question, is there an official way, similar to casting for Chromecast, that I can download/install on my PC to connect to my Roku device?

If anyone has any advice or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.

How to screen mirror from a Windows 10 computer

Use the following steps to connect your Windows 10 device to your Roku streaming device.

1. From the taskbar on your Windows device, open the Action Center
2. Select the Connect button
3. Select your Roku device from the list of wireless display and audio devices to start the connection
4. Follow the instructions on your Roku device to allow screen mirroring

• Note: If you are unable to find the Action Center on your Windows device, you can also view the list of wireless display and audio devices from the Settings menu. Go to the Start menu on your Windows device and select Settings > System > Display > Connect to a wireless display.

If you have issues connecting to a wireless display on your Windows device, contact Microsoft support for help.

Once you establish a connection between your Android or Windows device to your Roku streaming device, a screen mirroring request will appear on your TV screen.

Thanks,

Thanks for trying to help. To confirm, I apparently have older software as I do not have an Action Center. I followed the older instructions, but alas, I seem to lack "Connect to a wireless device":
