Keyboard and mouse stopped working

[Elek]

So I've been trying to get my ps4 controller to work with my pc, (DS4 couldn't run exclusive mode) I downloaded and ran a tool that should help with exclusive mode from the creator of inputmapper but after that my pc would recognize my controller but DS4 wouldn't. So the tool had downloaded a driver in my system32 folder, which I went and deleted and then ran the built in W10 troubleshooting guide, which recognized some kind of driver issue, downloaded something and told me to restart. Now after my pc has booted my mouse nor keyboard works in desktop. The leds on my keyboard and mouse flash/stay on for a bit when i start up my pc then they turn off when im in desktop. Also when I click something with the mouse, the led flashes then turns off. Please send help

The obvious answer is to reinstall drivers for the keyboard and mouse. However, if you cannot interact with your computer, then this may prove to be a bit more difficult. I suggest trying another keyboard and mouse to see if they work. You can try a desktop sharing software (e.g. Remote Desktop) to control the system.
