HELP Can't get PS4 controller working on Win10

Could't get my PS4 running on Windows 10.

Tried using DS4 windows but it wasn't being detected.

I have a theory i don't have any 360 drivers due to deleting things with out any knowledge like a smooth brain.

Tried enabling and disabling the drivers through device manager but I might have messed something up because now I think it doesn't detect the device at all.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Dunno if I'm of any help, but "it just worked" when I plugged mine in with USB cable. Didn't need any 3rd party software.

Yeah have you tried it plugged in? or are you just connecting bluetooth? I often had trouble getting BT going if I hadn't already physically connected the controller once before. I wish I could say it's worth switching to a Microsoft controller, as I was a longtime DS4 user and made the switch recently.....buuutt although I'm happy with the quality and feel of the controller, I'm still having some issues with connectivity, especially in some Microsoft Studios games, go figure.
