If you open the ScpMonitor you’ll notice everything appears disconnected because the ScpServer is not running (we manually stopped it before).Open up the Ds4Pair file ( bin folder) running it as administrator once more and wait until it stops searching, then click on Start at the bottom to fully connect your Bluetooth.Unplug your PS4 Controller (detaching the USB cord from it), hold the Share and PS buttons for about five seconds until its blue light starts flashing. Type net stop “SCP DS3 Service” and hit Enter. If you’re using a wired controller you should be able to immediatly use it after the previous steps, but in case you want to play games via Bluetooth you need to go to Start > Command Prompt and once again select it as administrator.

Right-click on ScpDriver and run it as administrator, uncheck the Bluetooth Driver since you’ve already installed a newer version and Install (if you have an older system such as Vista or XP you have to select Forced Install too).

Pick the Bluetooth Dongle from the lines in list (it should have your device’s name) and click the Replace button. If you previously made this operation for the wired controller, due to a glitch which prevents the drop-down menu to appear you have to uncheck List All Devices in the Options menu and check it a second time. If you want to install a Bluetooth receiver: Click on Device > Load Preset Device again and choose the Bluetooth.cfg file from the Zadig folder. If you get a warning message which asks you for a confirmation select Yes. Go to Options > List All Devices, from the drop-down menu pick the Wireless Controller line and click over the Replace Driver button. If you want to play with a wired controller: Select Device > Load Preset Device and pick the DualShock4.cfg from the Zadig container. Open the Zadig folder and run the zadig application as administrator, a new window will open.Open up the SCPServer folder and the bin one you’ll find inside, then plug in your PS4 controller with its cable or the Bluetooth Dongle (if you have one and want to use that instead).If you have Windows 7 or Vista however you have to run the program (you might already have it, but be sure that everything is up to date on your system), along with the dxwebsetup.exe and vcredist_x86.exe (these two are required in each case).

Still, the guide I found seems pretty detailed so I believe you won’t have issues with this installation as long as you follow all the required steps correctly. I do not have a Playstation 4 yet, so I couldn’t effectively try this method myself.
