    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.

    See troubleshooting steps working for Dualshock 4 controller pairing:

    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.

    Playstation 4 controller mic and sound

    Jericho,

    Thank you for getting back to me in a timely manner! Unfortunately I'm not trying to use the PS4 controller with my PlayStation. I have my PS4 controller plugged into my PC, and am trying to get audio and mic through the controller, while its connected through
    the PC. Is there any way to do this?

    Thanks,

    -Dustin

    My Ps4 controller wont connect to playstation after being linked to pc

    Unable to connect PS4 controller to PC

    I can connect the ps4 controller just fine, my issue is that it wont show up at all after being paired. I have to unpair it, connect the device, enter the 4 digit code, it gets very tiresome. Method 1 didn't work because I had no greyed out devices. Method
    2 I have been doing, I am just trying to figure out a quicker way to connect it.
