i want to update the firmware on my dualsense controller and installed the necessary app on a vm. it opens but when i plug in the controller the app seems to crash. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling and rebooting but it keeps crashing. does anyone have any potential fixes?

Hold up... There's a PC app that can update the firmware without plugging it back into the PS5? 😮

Can I get a link? And will this also allow me to check the battery level?

A quick search led me here, which looks like what OP is using based on the screenshots: https://controller.dl.playstation.net/controller/lang/en/2100004.html
