(Optional)Bluetooth 2.1+, via adapter or built in pc ( Recommended) (Toshiba's bluetooth & Bluetooth adapaters using CSR currently does not work).

Sony DualShock 4 (This should be obvious).

Microsoft 360 Driver (link inside DS4Windows, already installed on Windows 7 SP1 and higher or if you've used a 360 controller before).

DS4 Driver (Downloaded & Installed with DS4Windows).

NET 4.5 or higher (needed to unzip the driver and for macros to work properly) To solve this, check Hide DS4 in the settings, if you see a warning in the log/text on the bottom, that means you must close said game or client that causes the conflict and reconnect the controller.

Note: same games work with the DS4 without DS4Windows (however it does use rumble etc.) Games like these can cause double input in menus (ie pressing down on the dpad moves 2 spaces) or the wrong button to do incorrect functions.

All should be good to go once you connect the controller, if not restart DS4Windows, or even your computer.

Connect the DS4 via a micro usb or through bluetooth (DS4 Device name: 'Wireless Controller') may need to enter pair code: 0000).

If you have used SCP's tool in the past, you may need to uninstall the drivers to use the DS4 with bluetooth.

A windows will pop up showing how to install the driver, if not, go to settings and click 'Controller/Driver Setup'.

If not in Program Files, choose where you want to save profiles.

Extract the 2 programs (DS4Windows and DS4Updater) in the zip wherever you please (My Docs, Program Files, etc.).
