However, you may occasionally see the following error message: Your PC cannot project to another screen. This prevents you from adding extra screens to your PC. This issue might be caused by loosely connected cables, a faulty display adapter driver, or a recent Windows Update that screwed with the settings.

Here are some basic troubleshooting options you should consider.

First, check your HDMI or Display Port cable for any damage, and ensure that it is securely attached to its respective port.

The second method, updating the display adapter drivers.

This would check for any issues with the display drivers. And updating them may help in addressing this issue.

Step 3 - Find the Display adapters and expand the list.

Step 4 - Right-click on the graphics card driver and select Update driver.

Step 5 - Restart the system once it's done.
