  1. Windows 10 Not Dectecting PS4 Controller at all


    So after several hours on reading forum posts I have not found anyone with my problem specifically or how to fix it. I recently got a new computer and wanted to use a Dual Shock ps4 controller on it to play games. However, it seems windows isn't even detecting the controller in the first place. When going into Device manager "HID Wireless Controller" doesn't show up no matter which usb port the controller is plugged into.


    I've tested the usb ports and they work fine with flash drives and mice, so I don't think they're the problem. I tried resetting the controller and that didn't work. I troubleshot hardware and devices, nothing. I read in some posts that you need to do an advanced troubleshoot but I don't get that option any where that I can find. I restarted my pc several times over these series of events and still nothing.


    The controller works fine on my old pc and on my ps4. Any fixes I've seen online I can't even do the first step because it doesn't show up in my devices to begin with. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    :)

  3. I can't pair my ps4 controller since 1703 update

    Hi Irvin,

    Please provide the answers to the following for us to be able to learn more about the issue you're experiencing with your PS4 controller:

    • Is your PS4 controller compatible with the updated Windows 10?
    • Have you tried using a different controller and still got the same result?
    • Have you also tried connecting a different Bluetooth device and still failed to work?
    • Are you receiving an error message when trying to connect your PS4 controller? If yes, what is the error message you're receiving?

    Meanwhile, make sure that your drivers are updated. If not yet, you can follow the steps found on this
    link on how to update your drivers in Windows 10.

    Can you create another administrator account and observe if the
    issue persists while using that new administrator account?

    Let us know if the issue persists.

    Regards.

    Windows 10 Not Dectecting PS4 Controller at all

    I can't pair my ps4 controller since 1703 update

    • Is your PS4 controller compatible with the updated Windows 10?
    I don't know, but before the update everything is working fine.

    • Have you tried using a different controller and still got the same result?
    No.

    • Have you also tried connecting a different Bluetooth device and still failed to work?
    No.

    • Are you receiving an error message when trying to connect your PS4 controller? If yes, what is the error message you're receiving?
    None. I don't receive any error message. When I plugged the bluetooth to my pc then try to pair my controller the light will blink and stays on a solid color (that means it was connected) then after a seconds the light will turn off
    and my controller will not work but when I look into settings in bluetooth device it shows that my controller is still connected but it's not working.
