    Dualsense Not Detected By Windows

    My PC isn’t detecting my Dualsense as a Bluetooth device. When I try to add a new device it just won’t show up in the list, only my TVs will. I’ll list every step I’ve taken.

    Unsynced device from PS5, when I press the PS button it slowly flashes blue a few times and then powers off. After doing this I factory reset the controller, leaving the button held down for five seconds and then again for more than ten seconds for good measure.

    Dualsense was recognized as an audio device after connecting via USB. I removed the devices/drivers from the list of devices, as well as every instance of them in Device Manager. I deleted every USB device aside from my clearly labeled mouse and any USB Input Device entries under Human Interface Devices. That may be what I’m missing but I’m worried those are actually for the MoBo, so I didn’t touch them.

    Restarted PC. Dualsense is absent from device list and Device Manager. Pressed the Share and PS buttons and the device began quickly flashing blue, indicating it was in pairing mode. I then hit “Add Device” but it still won’t show up in the list.

    Ensured I can connect to my TVs, that went fine. Connected my Dualsense to my phone, that went fine. All drivers up to date. I’m stumped.

    Have you tried the pinhole reset?
    If yes then try connecting via Bluetooth while the DS5 is connected via cable.

      Being that the OP revisited the forum but chose not to acknowledge the reply #2 of Bastet this thread will be closed.
