Ds4 Controller Driver Windows 10changed the title

@xdantey The site appears to be up at this time. If you are referring to 'Step 1: Install the DS4 Driver', then you are correct in regards to the installer retrieving a file from the site (http://ds4windows.com/Files/Virtual Bus Driver.zip). I would suggest downloading that file if there have been intermittent site outages. Simply running and installing ScpDriver should address the first step.

You can get the zip from WayBack Machine. (https://web.archive.org/web/20170311022846/http://ds4windows.com/Files/Virtual%20Bus%20Driver.zip)
But what do you do with it after? Just run ScpDriver.exe? |
commented Oct 28, 2017
Yes, just run ScpDriver.exe and after that start DS4Windows and the Install window won't pop up (at least on win10)

commented Oct 28, 2017

Ds4 Driver Won't Install

I cannot detect the PS4 controller ; What I do ?

commented Aug 27, 2018
My suggestion to all is to use input mapper. It's an alternate program since this one is no longer properly supported. Consider the unofficial successor.
|
commented Aug 28, 2018
I test InputMapper fairly frequently but neither version 1.6 nor 1.7 work that well. Neither version can get the most basic DS4 to XInput mapping system right. There have been some interesting developments but Wobbles really should have just focused on getting XInput mapping working well with 1.7 before jumping into implementing other features. Testing the most recent 1.7 build (1.7.6811.34320) with HTML5 Gamepad Tester shows that the full analog stick range is not even being used for the output XInput device.

https://treebug717.weebly.com/blog/the-flow-ebook-free-download. Again it's an alternative. Use whatever works for you. This is the option for those that don't want to try and debug this.. Our can't get this working.. Input mapper is another option. That one is just actively supported. https://treebug717.weebly.com/blog/free-movie-download. Just updated this month.. Not saying one is necessarily better then the other.. Everyone can choose for what to use. But may not know of other options.

Dualshock 4 Drivers don't install correctly when plugged in
I am trying to get a Dualshock 4 controller to work on my PC over a microUSB cable, but whenever I plug it in, the drivers do not install correctly. Windows gives me a 'Device driver software was not successfully installed' message. Troubleshooting figures out that there is an issue with the driver, but can never fix the issue.
Checking the properties of the USB Input Device in Device Manager gives me 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)' I can't update the driver because it says it is already up to date, and uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't change anything.
I've tried many things to get this to work. I have previously used a Dualshock 3 on this PC, so I uninstalled any SCPDriver and MotionJoy drivers. I have all the required things like Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories, any C++ Runtimes, DirectX Runtimes and .NET Frameworks. Tried installing and uninstalling SCPDrivers or DS4Windows in different patterns to see if it would work. Normally when I 'install' it, in Device Manager, it is located under Human Interface Devices as a USB Input Device.
One thing I did notice is that on this website http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-use-the-ps4-controller-on-your-mac-or-pc/, at '1.3 Connect the DualShock 4 Controller', the image is this. But when I try to install, I get this. I have the Xbox 360 Accessories installed but it recognizes it as a generic Wireless Controller. Not sure if that is the issue.
I am pretty sure it isn't something wonky with the controller itself or the microUSB cable, as I have installed it fine on other computers.
Ds4 Windows Driver Won't Install
I can't seem to find anything else about this problem on the internet. It seems that the issues that people have with the Dualshock 4 are after actually plugging it in and installing.
Ds4 Controller Driver Didnt Install Correctly Download
EDIT: Found the issue. Turns out it was the micro USB cord I was using, despite the fact that it installed correctly on other computers. I just used my phone's micro USB and it installed fine.
