Unfortunately the DebugView log is missing.
This log is crucial to narrow down the issue.
Please check if DebugView.log is present in either C:\Users\Public\Downloads or C:\Users\Public\Public Downloads folder.
If it is present, please send it to us by attaching into your next reply.

Quote from Yash on 08/01/2026, 17:08Ok I solved it by
-> Repairing spacedesk drivers
-> Setting the usb connection type to transferring images (It still showed black screen after I did this but it recognized the tablet)
-> changing the encoding to hardware (forced) fixed it after that

So I replaced 2.2.14 and tried it, but the problem persisted. I then followed your guide and, miraculously, it's working again! Thank you so much.

Quote from Mr on 17/01/2026, 15:44Can you tell me why, without changing anything in the settings, it went from perfectly functional to non-functional just by updating SpaceDesk Driver to make the app functional for another year?

Thank you for verifying that the latest Driver Package fixed the issue on your end. Hardware Encoding support was added last year as an option for performance improvement in Primary PCs that is compatible with Hardware Encoding. The issue possibly lies with the Hardware Encoding but we weren’t able to verify it due to some missing logs from your log folder. For the meantime, please continue to use Software Encoding in your Viewer devices. Thank you.
