    DualShock 4 not getting removed in Settings


    So, I have a ds4 that worked well for over a year but now something's wrong with win10 bluetooth handling?

    I use my ds4 on several PCs so I have to re-pair it almost every time I wanna use it. This time it just straight up refuses to get removed from paired devices. I've already tried removing it by device via Device Manager and deleting the registry keys but neither worked.

    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    PS4 Dualshock 4 Controller Failing To Stay Connected

    Hi Reo. I'm Greg, an installation specialist, 10 year Windows MVP, and Volunteer Guardian Moderator here to help you.

    Try troubleshooting without the emulator. Uninstall and restart PC first.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted. If you will wait to rate my post, I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
