Anytime I install Punkbuster through pbscv.exe, I noticed that the installer didn't even touch PnkBstrB.exe and I don't have pnkbstrb service to begin with. I've gone as far as reinstalling bf4 after deleting any file I could find related to punkbuster
@A11A5Update: After looking around the forums I found that playing bf4 through battlelog will actually give an error message for Punkbuster
Update 2: Did some more searching and found that Punkbuster logs any errors under %LOCALAPPDATA%/punkbuster/(game)/pb/pbcl.log. The same error that battlelog will give you.
The error I was getting was "RESTRICTION: Disallowed Program/Driver [130827]", and some posts I found indicated that Punkbuster thought a program was trying to bypass it, thus kicking me out. After some thought, I remembered my computer runs gamefirst VI, a program that boosts online performance, prioritizes games over other programs. I set bf4s priority lower. I'll update this post if anything goes wrong.
