PunkBuster

Hello, I have problem with PunkBuster.

When i connect to server, after 30s of playing server kicked me for PunkBuster error.

I tried this:
1. Set it in services.msc

2. Allow PnkbstrA and B in Firewall.

3. I uninstalled punkbaster in bf4 folder and installed him back.

4. I updated him from official sites.

Sorry for my English. Do you have any tips?

Thanks.

@letec29 Please update all this on your PC then test BF4 after a reboot of your PC. Updating though any game is never going to give you the most up to date files always get them from the web to be sure your game stays stable ...

Edit... to repair game in origin right mouse click on BF4 game and pick repair game

Latest version of DirectX see this page

Reinstall Microsoft C++ For my game PC's I install both x64 and x86 as it does not hurt the PC

NOTE>>> you need to select the x64 or the x86 file depending on what architecture your computer has. To find this out, Click Start, right click on "Computer" and select "Properties". Under system type is should say "32-Bit Operating System" or "64-bit Operating System". If 32-bit operating system, download the x86 file, and if 64-bit download the x64 file.

Hello there, letec29 i'm happy to say that this is an easy fix and you will get back in your game ETA 1 minute
Going in BF4/ PunkBuster folders and fixing them on your own is not gonna do any good and might even corrupt the game ever more that it already is
This is what i recommend doing
If you're on PC then go to Origin then your Library and right-click on Battlefield 4 icon and click repair
This will repair your game including all the DLCs you have on your account and fix most corrupted files including PunkBuster
I hope this helps!
Thanks, again for reading this m8

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I am maybe stupid but i dont see option to repair game (I am on PC).
When i click to BF4 launch icon in origin folder, there is only 1 similar thing: "solve compatibility issues"
This is it?

Well i don't have that option in my Origin Client and quite frankly i don't know what it does.
If you don't have the option please contact EA Advisor or simply reinstall Origin and let it update!
Thanks again for reading this and i hope it helps!
