Barracuda X 2022 headset (RZ04-04430100). My dongle just stopped working one day couple years ago, and it hasn’t bothered me because I just used aux cord for my PS5 remote. but now I have a PC and can’t get the dongle to be recognized. my pc just says, “The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.” I’ve tried the Pairing tool and the Firmware update tools a lot…. they won't recognize that I’ve plugged it in, I’ve tried every USB port and USB-C port. My computers windows Is all up to date, drivers are all up to date.
