If you’re having trouble using SCRCPY, here are a few things to check:
- Make sure that your device is connected to your computer via USB and that you have enabled USB debugging on the device.
- Ensure that SCRCPY is in the PATH on your computer. If you installed scrcpy using the Windows installer, it should be in the PATH by default. On macOS or Linux, you may need to add the SCRCPY installation directory to your PATH manually.
- Check the version of SCRCPY on your computer and the version of adb on your computer. Scrcpy and adb should be compatible.
