Here’s how one user describes this issue: Fortunately, there are a few solutions to fix this problem. So, if you are experiencing various Wireless Display Media Viewer issues after upgrading to the Creators Update, follow the troubleshooting steps listed below.

How to fix Wireless Display Media Viewer bugs

Solution 1 — Update your drivers After installing the Windows 10 Creators Update, don’t forget to update your drivers. If Windows doesn’t find a new driver, try looking for one on your device manufacturer’s website and follow their instructions. Solution 2 — Refresh, reset, or restore your system Refreshing your PC reinstalls Windows, keeping your personal files, settings, and apps intact. Resetting your PC reinstalls Windows but deletes all your files, settings, and apps except for the apps that came with your PC. Restoring your PC allows you to undo recent system changes. Users confirm that performing a reset does the trick. However, we recommend you first perform a refresh or a restore. In this manner, you won’t delete your files and apps. If this doesn’t help, perform a system reset but bear in mind that this action will permanently delete a series of files and programs. For a step-by-step guide on how to refresh, reset, or restore your system, check out Microsoft’s support page.
