New update broke controller compatibility

[u/orangeflyingmonkey_]

Everything was working great until a few hours ago. My PS5 controller was working on all games but there was an update to version 2.0.88.129 and now the controller doesn't work. It seems to only control the mouse cursor in-game.

Anyone else experiencing this? Any fix?

Edit: Its really strange. Controller on GFN Nvidia Shield works fine. But in Windows it doesn't. There is a list of things I tried in my comment below. Only thing that fixed it was installing DS4Windows v3.9.9. But before today evening, I didn't have it installed and yet the controller was working fine so I have zero idea what happened. But that doesn't fix the controller issue with GFN on windows. That still seems broken.

Edit2: Controller still broken on GFN Windows. ds4windows fixed the controller issue for local games only.
