I have a problem projecting to my Windows PC screen

I have a Windows laptop, and a Android 11 cellphone.
Previously, I have been able to project my cellphone screen to my laptop with no problems,
but now when I try to project my android screen to my laptop, I get an error message that
reads: Projected content can’t be viewed on this device. Is there a way that I can fix this problem?

    If updates don’t help, try uninstalling the wireless display driver (look for Miracast or Wireless Display in Network adapters), then restart your laptop. Windows should reinstall the driver automatically.

    If your PC doesn’t support Miracast or the feature got disabled, the easiest workaround might be to use a dedicated app like Your Phone (from Microsoft) or scrcpy for wired mirroring.
