2. After the tool collects all the information about your computer, click the Save all Information button.
3. Now you have to choose where you want to save the DxDiag.txt file on your computer. You can save it on a quick-to-access location such as your desktop.

6. It will either read Miracast is available, in which case your PC will be ready to cast its display to a compatible device, or read Miracast not supported, which you might want to explore other options. If you see Miracast: available with HDCP, everything works correctly.
