FIX : Unexpected Device Error While Casting From Windows 10

FIX 1 – Recheck The Content You Want To Cast

One main reason that may contribute to this issue is the type of content you’re casting to device. Please ensure following points:

  • Content should not be bulk in size, for example, content above 500MB may cause unexpected device error on slow networks
  • It should have that format which your casting device can support
  • The content file shouldn’t be corrupted, you can check this by playing it on Windows 10 first and they try to cast it.

    Sorry,
    None of the solutions available on the internet worked. I got a new laptop and all casting was working fine. Then there was a series of windows updates which took a long time. After trying all possible suggestions available on the internet, and not fixing my issue, it looked like the windows update is the problem. Uninstalled all windows updates which happened recently. Everything works fine now.
