If you want to convert an ordinary TV into a smart TV, Google Chromecast offers a quick and easy way to stream media to your TV wirelessly. You can cast content over Wi-Fi to your TV from your phone or your laptop. There are many other cool things you can do with Chromecast.

Still, you may encounter a few issues when trying to stream with your Chromecast dongle, such as the “Source not supported” error. 

Let’s look at some troubleshooting tips and fixes you can use to resolve this error and start casting content to your TV via Chromecast again.

If you’ve tried the quick fixes, but none of them worked, try temporarily disabling the real-time protection feature on Windows Defender and check if you can cast again. The real-time protection feature scans your downloads and programs you run on your device so make sure you turn it back on to keep your device safe from the threat of viruses or malware.

Try to cast your content via Chromecast again to see whether the real-time protection feature is causing the problem. If not, enable Real-time protection again and try the next solution.
