Cannot connect Continuum between Lumia 950XL and Lenovo X230

[Windows Central Question]

Hi,

I'm having a hard time trying to wirelessly connect my Lumia 950Xl to Lenovo X230 laptop. The Connect app launches but gets stuck in with the message "Lumia is about to project". On both devices I have Windows 10 Anniversary Update with all the recent updates, settings enable etc.
The thing is I can connect the phone to my Surface Pro 3, updated as well. So it's just the thing with my X230 (it supports Miracast as well).
Any ideas, what more I could check?

Not sure but make sure the Connect app is also open on the receiving device (Worth a try).

If that doesn't work sign up and let us know, I am sure someone else will pitch in.

does projecting to the device require pairing? Can you do that process again?
