Open the Bluetooth & other devices menu in Windows by pressing the Windows key and typing 'Bluetooth'. Click 'Add Bluetooth or other device' then 'Bluetooth'. On the DualSense, hold down the PlayStation logo button and the Share button (the small one to the left of the touchpad) until the LEDs around the touchpad begin flashing. 'Wireless controller' should pop up in your Bluetooth devices list. Click on it to finish pairing.

DS4Windows PS5 Controller on PC guide:
Most Windows games use Microsoft's XInput, an interface that processes Xbox 360 and Xbox One controller inputs. The DualShock 4 and DualSense doesn't send XInput commands, so a wrapper is needed to translate its inputs. DS4 Windows makes it possible for you to use your PlayStation and Nintendo controllers on a Windows 10/11 PC by emulating a virtual Xbox/DS4/DS5/PS5 controller.
How to Use DS4Windows:
Though USB cables are the most reliable, connecting the controller wirelessly via Bluetooth will offer similar response times (input delay) and stable connections as long as a good quality BT adapter is being used and no major radio interference is affecting the connection.
DS4Windows was created by InhexSTER and branched off to Elctrobrains and eventually recreated by Jays2Kings. Currently the official DS4Windows is maintained and forked by Ryochan7.
