    Question How to disable "Cast" /"Connect" in windows 10 in a mass deployment environment

    yeah I thought about that too. I cant find the name of the exe or service that the Cast/Connect app belongs too. I thought it was "CastSrv.exe" in system32 folder but not 100% sure.

    Question How to disable "Cast" /"Connect" in windows 10 in a mass deployment environment

    Hi Ralston18, The end result would be to not allow students to see or connect to the wireless display adapter at all. I'm trying to prevent students from trying to connect to the board the teacher is casting too while they are teaching or when the teacher is disconnected from the Wireless...

    I am not running any phone apps, the two programs I am thinking that has something to do with it is Halo or private internet access VPN. I did create the windows 10 media from the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool from Microsoft.

    Question What is this program running while my computer idles?

    There is nothing in startup menu that points to what the program is. It does not show-up at startup. I see it when waking up my screen after 30 mins or more. I checked in task scheduler as well but don't see anything that points to what the program might be.

    Question What is this program running while my computer idles?

    Ran Malwarebytes and windows defender, nothing is found. I also installed a fresh copy of windows 10 pro onto my computer and it still popped up. I also have PIA, I wonder if it has something to do with that.

    I’m having trouble identifying this app that keeps running when my screen sleeps. I thought it might have something to do with halo infinity since I seem to notice if after installing halo and icon looks like a spartan helmet with a key. When I wake up my screen, it is running for half a second...
