    When I wire my PS4 controller to the pc, it flashes one orange light that would indicate charging, and then turns black, and it stays like that. Earlier today it was the same, but eventually i got a security popup for DS4, i said yes and it worked. How can I fix this controller not plugging?

  3. PS4 Controller (bluetooth) connection issues

    My PS4 controller, which worked perfectly fine with my laptop until today, now won't connect properly. I try to connect the controller, and the controller just turns off. On my laptop it says the controller is connected, but the controller is obviously not.

    My drivers are all updated.

    I've already tried basic steps like restarting the computer.

    What should I do?

  4. My PS4 controller won't connect with windows, WIRED.

    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.
