Other series of controllers are currently implemented by simulating the XBOX handle. You may need dedicated drivers to use the DS4 controller with Windows.

Thanks for your post in Microsoft Community.
I understand that you are having problems with Windows not recognizing your controller.
What controller are you currently using? Is it the Xbox series controller?
Maybe try resetting the controller and reconnecting to see if the device is recognized again.
Different controllers have different reset methods, please refer to the instructions of your controller to reset.
Please feel free to let me know how it goes.
