Wireless Display in Windows 11 allows us to display an image, video, and the like on a wireless TV or monitor. Windows 11 projection is a Mirocast that mirrors the photo to other screens.
By default, in Windows 11, you will not be able to enable the “Projecting to This PC” feature in the settings, as the function is inactive due to the wireless display add-on not being installed. It will show that this device does not support Miracast signal reception, so wireless projection is impossible.
