Connecting PS4 controller on PC crashes my game

I’ve been playing with a Dualshock 4 on my pc lately, but now all of a sudden every time I try to connect it (through micro USB) the game just freeze in position untill I plug it out. If I let it stay frozen for too long (like 10 seconds) and disconnect it I’ll get a crash saying I’ve lost server connection. It worked fine all untill today, and it just happened mid game. Anyone had this issue?

@kengelsjord Hey, thanks for the post. I just popped my PS4 controller in and messed around in the firing range without issue.

Can you try restarting your system with a Clean Boot and check again?

If the issue persists, there may be some conflict with 3rd party software, I'd start by checking anything that affects.manages controller inputs.
