Windows Viewer stuck on "Connecting…" but Android Viewer works
Quote from Not on 13/07/2026, 16:15Hi,
I am having issue with using my laptop display as my secondary display, I am using my PC’s hotspot to connect my laptop and phone, My phone can connect to my PC but my Laptop can’t connect. Its staying on the screen with the message “Connecting to …..” then after 2-3 seconds it goes back to main window.
- My laptop can ping my PC
- My Phone can connect to my PC
For more details about it please refer to this post as I asked for this issue on there too: https://superuser.com/questions/1939028/spacedesk-works-on-android-but-not-on-my-windows-laptop
