    Well, for one reason or another, you now want to remove DS4Windows, but have noticed that it's easier said than done. Mainly because there's no option to uninstall DS4Windows - and there never has been. Instead, you have to remove the components that make up the application. In this video, we'll show you how to remove DS4Windows from your PC/Windows install.

    I was having some issues with my PS4 controller buttons not responding so I had to completely remove this program and this video was straight to the point.

      He should probably pin this. It's an older video, but it's useful information. I found it on my own, but everyone isn't going to be aware of this.

      Hello, I have a question, in the uninstallation process it asks me for Administrator permissions, I would like to know if it is normal or not.

    Excellent video and still relevant in 2022. It is very important to watch the very last step beginning at 3:41 to completely remove ds4's presence from your machine.

    Thanks for the video! I saw so many that weren't complete or work at all. Great job.
    I've switched to reWASD, and was kind of amazed I hadn't heard of it until now. I'm still learning how to set it up (the UI is nice and clean, but a bit hard to understand), but it's quite powerful and far less scary to find, install, etc. (It does cost a bit of money, but for the polish and support, I'll gladly pay.)
