2017 and we still have the Punkbuster kicking issue!!

l have this annoying PnkBstr message: You have been kicked by Punkbuster.
I tried every single listed suggested fix, allowing,disabling firewall/antivirus, updating Punkbuster, checking if the services are ruining bla bla
even I tried to reinstall BF4 on a fresh windows 10 but all that for nothing, what is the fix??

Note: I was playing it without issues on windows 10.

  • I tried every single solution on the forums and i reinstalled more than 15 times, stopped the firewall, services and re start them but  with nothing.

    while replaying to u i found the solution which is more complicated than just update or reinstall Punkbuste which is found here :

    "You need to manually delete every instance of PB and it's found here
    Windows\system32 OR sysWOW64 - whatever OS you are using. Look for PnkBstr.
    I'm using 64bit and these are the entries I have
    PnkBstrA PnkBstrB.ex0 PnkBstrB
    I also found PB living here:-
    System32\LogFiles\PunkBuster A & B
    Go to:-
    OriginGames\BF4 Remove directory PB
    Go to:-
    Users\yourname\AppData\local\ Remove PB directory
    Download pbsvc.exe from http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe Run that and select uninstall.
    Reboot computer and use that same pbsvc.exe to re-inistall
    Download pbsetup http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php and run
    Reboot and pray"

  • I got a phone number for them, but don't know that they'll do anything. Gonna call them anyways, and if that don't work maybe have a Brother, or few go say hi. 2812518893
