  5. Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on the keyboard to log into the content PC and use it as normal.

Note: If the PC goes to sleep, the “Start Sharing” option will not display, in its place will be “Plug HDMI cable into device.” This message is misleading as there is no HDMI cable to be plugged in. The PC just needs to be woken up by moving the mouse or tapping the keyboard.
