The easiest way to test if this has happened is +for you to plug in the controller into a different USB port and see if it +works then. Although this problem mainly affected versions of +DS4Windows prior to 1.4.109 when using some applications, other mapping +programs can cause the same problem to occur. + + +If you suspect that your DS4 has been disabled, open the Device Manager +(Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Device Manager) and look for devices listed +under the path "Human Interface Devices\HID-compliant game controller". + +![Disabled Device Example](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ryochan7/DS4Windows/jay/disabled_device_example_small.png) + +If the icon shown for a device has a down arrow icon then you should +check the device's device instance path and see if the device is a +DualShock 4 device. Right click the device item and select "Enable device" +from the menu. That will re-enable the device and be seen by applications +again. ## Pull Requests
