Then go into Steam > BPM > Controllers and un-tick every single box
Then full exit BPM and then Steam Client and relaunch it.
Then repeat but tick just the PS4 Controller box; if this alone doesn't do it, try the Generic box as well. Exit out BPM and relaunch Steam Client again.
Not sure that you must do it in these steps; but again I'm just trying to suggest that as a more helpful means, since that should do it 100%
Did you check the DS4 Controller in Windows > Controllers (Winkey+R, type JOY.CPL, click OK) and check that Axis', Triggers, Buttons, all working in that?
Looks like there is no way for me to have my PS4 controller work for steam.
well my xbox one controller connected to the pc fine but steam not recognize it at all
So if like me, your controller connects to your computer but not to Steam (you've already paired it via Bluetooth), try clicking the Windows notification that comes up when you turn on the controller and connect ("Add a device, tap to setup your wireless controller"). I clicked on that and it asked if I wanted to pair this controller to the windows device. Click pair and it should work.
Just bear in mind the controller turns off quite quickly so you have to do it all quite fast. After it pairs, start the controller again and it should stay on and show up in Steam.
I've no idea why you have to 'pair' the controller again after you've already set up the Bluetooth connection but it worked. Hopefully it does for someone else too.
This might work for other controllers but I'm not sure.
Just go to your device manager -> Wireless controller and try disabling the USB INPUT DEVICE and enable it again.
If that doesn't work, just delete the wireless controller and reconnect your ds4 to reinstall it.
It obviously isn't a permanent fix, but I don't know if there is one...
I should have just bought an xbox controller... despite the higher latency and the lack of touch pad and what not...
Honestly, ds4 is a much better controller i just wish it was more friendly with pc. I've been having the same problem lately
