Windows 10: Is there a way to prevent Wireless Display from disconnecting while its window is minimized?

Hi guys, how are you? So, I recently bought a new monitor and I have a notebook from work to use, but I've always used Remote Desktop View to use the device, but since there are some limited scenarios that I can't execute while remoting, I found an alternative that was to use Wireless Display to project the screen for my personal PC. The problem is, I can only use if the Windows Firewall is disable and yes, I tried to create rules for the app, but it didn't work, any help I appreciate and if I minimize the Wireless Display app to use my main PC, in few seconds the display is disconnected.
