So my issue with punk buster is that the pbsetup application opens, but when it tries to update. it crashes. I’ve ran all the compatibility modes for it and ran as admin too. Nothing works. Please so...

@DuilMaighstir I think at that point I will have to contact evenbalance
@DuilMaighstir Have you checked your Operating system for errors?
Open CMD by typing "CMD" into the run box lower left. Right click CMD and select run as administrator. Then at the prompt type "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" without the quotes and let it run. It will tell you if it finds and repairs any files. This will take a couple of minutes. It fix's the OS.
After the above runs at the same command prompt type "sfc /scannow" without the quotes and let it run, it will repair any file errors it finds. This also will take some time depending what it finds.
Type "exit to close CMD.
Then see if the error persists.

- @sk1lld it still crashes
- @DuilMaighstir The only thing I have left is try uninstalling C++ 2012 and reinstall C++, x64 and x86 from link below to see if that works.
I'm all out of ideas.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=30679 Just want to add Punk Buster will crash if it is unable to contact the update server. So a firewall, or anything that blocks it will cause it to crash. You can try to update Punkbuster on another pc, then move the updated files to your pc and see if you can run BF4. If so you know for a fact you have something blocking PB.
