[2021] Why does my PS4 controller stop working on Steam?

Hi @Blewidescorpio, 

Have you tried starting up your PC in a Clean Boot to see if that helps at all? If there's anything else running that might be interfering with the controller that could help get around it. 

You can find more details on how to set up a Clean Boot over at the EA Help website. Let me know how that goes once you've had the chance to give it a shot. 

Thanks!

Ah, I see. That's definitely possible. Were you able to test it with a different cable, or is it the actual port on the controller that's loose?

Thanks for following up and letting me know! I'm glad to hear you were able to get it working, even if it's not pretty to look at.
