When I opened it today it it told me to plug in my controller, and get a system software update v. 3.50 or newer. I did that but then it couldn't recognise the file so I did a bit more research and I found another file which was 800 mbs and it actually got detected by my ps4. Then it asked me if I wanted to initialize my system. I knew this would delete all the data on it so I didn't do it. This is literally the only option it gives me. It's not even like safe mode. Every time I open it and plug in my controller after I press the PS button it tells me to plug in my usb for the system update that will delete all my data.
I need help fast.
