Lumia 950XL - Project My Screen not working after Win10 1803 Update - Black Screen

Anonymous

I use my 950XL extensively for demos of my company's software because it's much better display than my iPhone and doesn't need additional apps to do it.

I updated my Win10 desktop today to 1803 and also my phone updated to .104 and the app no longer works.

When I open the app I get the message on the phone to ask if I want to share and I agree. The display on the desktop is black, but I can actually start applications on the phone by clicking inside the black window, so there obviously is a connection, just no display.

I was working perfectly, but not now.

As a workaround, is it possible to use continuum? I'm sure there used to be an option to display the phone's screen rather than a full desktop to the connected display but that appears to be no longer available

Thanks,

Chris

    Oh, WP8.1... I had ever used it always and loved it:)

    Do you have any plan to update it to Windows 10 Mobile?

    If you do so, the app will draw your phone screen:)

    I use a Lumia 820 with WP8.1 and a Lumia 1020 with W10M, both phones not working with the updated app from you, the previous version worked with the Lumia 1020. It is a pity that the app is not compatible with WP8.1, because this is the most important thing for me, because I don't use W10M productively.

    Do you mean that you want resize app window size with keeping aspect ration of WP screen

    even if window has blank area?

    If so, try new one:)

    Anyone has problem of the app with Lumia 1020 with W10M?

    I can't research the problem because I don't have Lumia 1020.

    Someone teach me the detail of the problem?

    The application crashes after connecting and if i still connected the L1020 and restarted the application, the 1020 restarts and the application crashes.

    With the L820 only the screen remains dark, otherwise nothing happens.
