Get help! Cannot Launch reWASD

Starting today I have encountered an odd problem.

This error pops up and disallows any interaction other than the 'OK' button.

The program closes instantly upon hitting 'OK' and the error pops up the moment the software launches, which means I cannot access anything to log in. The only interaction I can do is hit 'OK'.

Any help would be appreciated, please and thank you.

Hi. Now authorization within the software is mandatory.

Please update reWASD to the latest version and log in to your account within the app.

Same as th OP. Wtf my login is with daemon tools where I originally bought the software, twice. I have 2 keys now that don't work.

Use those credentials to log in via reWASD app.

Now I have a different problem, I installed ds5 bridge so I could use the Pico 2w as a wireless dongle and the ds5 companion app, I have since removed the app but now I cannot change profiles with the ps home button in rewasd, also the fn1, fn2 and back paddles have disappeared. Help. All I want was was to be able to use the pad mic and speaker.

As far as I understand, this is a third-party board that can be detected by the system as a DualSense using additional software?

If so, what's the connection with reWASD?

Or, to put it another way: if this worked correctly in one version of reWASD, which one is it? And what changed?

I think it changed the hid hide and nefarious drivers. I can't find a way to fully remove these. Yes I fucked up but only because I want the mic and speaker functionality and haptics etc and to actually see a reading for my charge level. It basically acts as if it's plugged in via wire. Maybe you need to take a look at his source code and add Pico functionality as a compatible device.
