| If none of the above work, you may need to look into using [DS4Windows](https://ds4-windows.com/) (assuming you're using a PS4 or PS5 controller), however it should be noted that this is an _external_ program that it is in no way affiliated with Northstar. | |||

Linkcheck fails for https://ds4-windows.com/ but the site is reachable when checking by hand so I assume their spam protection is picking up GitHub Actions CI servers. As such I'd suggest adding the URL to the ignore list for the link check so that we can merge the PR ^^

Adds a mention about DS4Windows to the controller troubleshooting wiki section. This is due to the fact that Windows seemingly just hates PS controllers and that even Steam sometimes won't be able to properly make a PS4/5 controller work, and require the use of DS4Windows. This is commonly recommended and working in the Discord server, and is the only solution that I've seen helpers use publicly
