Windows 10: PS4 controller descriptor failed 43

Hello everyone,I have been using scp toolkit to make my controllers work on Windows for years, both ps3 and ps4. Recently my PS4 controller stopped working, so I tried installing and uninstalling the drivers onto it in the scp driver installer and after fruitless labor and slight frustration attempted to "uninstall" the USB port the controller was connected to.Now the PS4 controller comes up with an error "A request for the USB device descriptor failed. code 43" everytime its connected, it is not recognized by Windows.No different USB port works either, I have bought a new controller as well

:)

Maybe it's time to step back from the current efforts, and start over. I suggest you read over this excellent tutorial and try all of its steps: [Solved] Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) for Windows 10 - Driver Easy. The one that may provide you with some easy relief is the one where you uninstall the device whose descriptor is failing, reboot, and see what happens when device enumeration recurs during boot-up. If you're lucky, it will fix itself.
