According to this dudes post here... yes it works.

Just a heads up, people had varied experiences with latency and stability of connections with the same USB BT adapters. Some are fine, some are bad. Why that happens? According to this thread https://github.com/Jays2Kings/DS4Windows/issues/62 some had success by setting power options to max performance. Specifically there's an option in advanced power settings called Wireless Adapter Settings.

Can't really help you man. I don't know what you mean and you didn't give any specific information. Maybe try uninstalling any old driver in device manager and go let windows update find a compatible driver...

Basically,after I updated win 10,I can't see bluetooth in devices... I tried to fix that.. the conclusion is somehow win 10 drivers for  bluetooth  got ***** somehow after the update.

Yeah, it's hard to extrapolate anything from that post. Try uninstalling every remnant of the controller from device manager. In the bluetooth section its called "wireless controller" and in human interface devices uninstall bluetooth HID device with this hardware ID "VID&0002054c_PID&05c4". Then try pairing it up again. You can also try finding it in "Device and Printers" in the classic control panel.

Also if the driver was recently updated during the Windows 10 anniversary update go in device manager and rollback to a previous driver that worked. Windows 10 should already have drivers for most generic bluetooth adapters, if not then it should automatically download it.
My ps4 controller's right stick is not working during games, otherwise its showing its response in ds4window software.... plz help...
anybody else having issue with "Run at startup" on windows 10 anniversary?

Works for me... See if you find a DS4Windows.lnk shortcut file in here (paste in explorer addressbar) %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup If it's there, open Task Manager > Startup tab and see if its enabled. If it's not in the Startup folder, then maybe manually paste in a shortcut file. Checking Run at Startup in the DS4Windows settings should do it for you though... Otherwise make a Task Schedular task to make it run on startup.

This could also be an admin privilege issue. If you have DS4Windows in Program Files and settings in the same folder (Profiles.xml,Actions.xml, Auto Profiles.xml, Profiles Folder) then it will fail to run on startup. Either move the installation away from Program Files if you want to keep the settings portable in the same folder as the executable or move your settings files to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\DS4Windows. Another option is to make it run at startup in Task Scheduler with highest privileges. Basically UAC doesn't like programs saving their settings in certain system folders in windows unless you run as Admin or disable UAC completely.

try enabling "hide DS4"...
Hey, I've been using DS4 for a few months now, and I'm attempting to make some macros.

The issue I'm having is recording analog movements. I'd like to record a slight movement in one of the joysticks, but when I record and execute it, it executes a full movement, as if the stick were pushed all the way to one direction. I've also tried lowering the joystick sensitivity, but the same thing occurs - it executes as a full movement. Any thought on how to do this? Thanks in advance.

So for those that don't know:

What is DS4Windows?
DS4Windows was a project originally started by InhexSTER by the name of DS4 Tool. The tool was later branched off by electrobrains. I then later made my own branch of it. This program allows the PS4 controller (DualShock 4) to emulate an Xbox 360 controller, which allows far more games to be compatible with the DualShock 4 than out of the box.

Wait so there's other versions before it? So what's so special about yours?
Well I really just wanted to make my own version with my own UI and features. The first two of the programmers hadn't had things I wanted such a tool to have such as profiles.

So where can I download?
The first build as of moving to new servers is below, however you can always get the newest build via ds4windows.com.

...and installing it?
It's a portable program, meaning you can place the program where ever you want: in your downloads folder or program files, it's up to you. If it's your first time using the tool, you will need to install a x360 emulated driver for this to properly function, DS4Windows will properly walk you through this.

I get double input in some games or  pausing is mapped to another button
Check Hide DS4, some games can actually read the DS4's input without this program. Make sure to connect your controller while the game isn't open  as hiding the ds4 only works when such games or clients like steam or uplay aren't running/taking control of the controller. You will see a warning in the log/bottom of DS4Windows if the controller could not be exclusively gained.

SIMPLE & CLEAN UI
[Image: RaNtdQ6.png]
Since the idea is to get to get your controller ready for games, The UI was made to make to be quick to pick up. Once first launched, the tool takes your through the setup, gives you a default profile and you're ready to go, or if you choose you can change things to your heart's content.

PROFILE SYSTEM
[Image: Gg8ljnl.png]
With profiles, it makes it easier to quickly swap through various settings for your controller. You can set up controls for certain games, or set the lightbar to your favorite color. You can even swipe two fingers along the touchpad to swap profiles without the need to even open back the program.


TONS OF OPTIONS
[Image: WickedUnsungHorse.gif]
From control mapping, to touchpad sensitivity, to marcos, to rainbow lightbar, to motion controls, to launching a program with profiles, there are plenty of settings to play around with.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask in this thread.
