Viever does not work on my Laptop properly
Hi I have an issue. I’m trying to use my laptop as a secondary screen to my PC. The Viever sees an active client. The client recognizes and connect Viever. My PC sees secondary screen, I can set it to widen, show the same image on both. But Viewer is BLACK. I can move my mouse from Client to Viever, PC knows that there is a second screen, but the Viever is just all black.
What is funny is that app on Android Tablet works flawlessly.
What is more funny is that the HTML-Browser viever connects and works- both ways. PC as Client, Laptop as Viewer and vice versa. But its laggy, so I’m hoping to run the desktop app.
I don’t know what the problem might be.

Ok, so just quick update to this:

Also, which Windows Viewer did you try, the Windows Store Viewer or the Windows 7 Viewer available for download in the spacedesk website’s downloads page? Whichever you have tried, please try the other viewer also to see if it would work on your end. Thanks!
On laptop I used Windows 10/11 version (Microsoft Store) – that one does not work properly.
I’ve tried the Windows 7 version, but it was very unstable, and poor quality.
Will post later the diagnostic results
