I am experiencing an issue with my DS4 controller not being detected in the Windows 10 settings. It functions correctly within specific games like Rocket League but fails to appear in the controllers list. I have attempted numerous troubleshooting steps including uninstalling and reinstalling drivers (including older and newer versions), disabling “Hide DS4 Controller” option, restarting my computer multiple times, updating drivers, checking device manager, testing with different cables, and even uninstalling SCP Toolkit. Despite these efforts, the controller remains undetected in Windows settings. My PS4 controller works fine on that system, leading me to believe it's a driver or recognition issue specific to the DS4. I’m hoping someone can provide a solution or direct me to relevant resources as I'm at a loss for what to do.

Thank you for deleting my old post, and I am working with @indows 10 Pro Version 1809 and here are my specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7 4770k 3.50GHz
Motherboard: Asus Z97-P
Ram: 16 GB DDR3
SSD/HDD: 1TB HDD and 480GB Toshiba SSD
GPU: Asus Strix GTX 1070 8GB
PSU: Seasonic EVO 750W (I think)
I will try uninstalling and reinstalling my chipset and USB drivers, however, I made sure they were up to date previously and nothing has changed, but trying once more won't hurt.
