OK, I can cast from my phone and my tablet, both Android, but not my PC.  Using Windows 10, Chrome Browser, up to date.  I have unplugged rebooted, and said my prayers.  What am I doing wrong.?  BTW, it used to work.

It's frustrating that you can cast from your Android devices but not from your Windows 10 PC using Chrome. Here’s what you can try:

  1. Check Wi-Fi: Make sure your PC and Chromecast are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

  2. Update Chrome: Go to the three-dot menu in Chrome, click "Help," and then "About Google Chrome" to ensure you have the latest version.

  3. Clear Browser Data: Clear your browsing data in Chrome by going to the three-dot menu, then "More tools," and "Clear browsing data."

  4. Disable Extensions: Turn off any unnecessary extensions in Chrome by going to the three-dot menu, then "More tools," and "Extensions."

  5. Reset Chrome Settings: Reset Chrome to its default settings under "Advanced" in the Chrome settings menu.

  6. Check Firewall: Make sure your firewall or antivirus isn't blocking Chrome. You might need to allow Chrome through your firewall settings.

  7. Use Cast Button: Click the three-dot menu, select "Cast," and choose your Chromecast device from the list.

  8. Restart Router: Try restarting your WiFi router to refresh the connection.

I have done many of the above, and now it works.  Just don't know what did it.  Thanks
