• To check and update your Windows computer, go to Settings-> Updates & Security menu then click the option to Check for Update.
• To confirm that your computer is running Windows 10 or later, go to Settings-> System-> About and then check the version number under Windows specifications. It should read either 1903 or 1809. 

Aside from operating system requirements, your phone and computer must be connected on the same Wi-Fi network.
