    -3. Find PnkbstrA.exe and PnkbstrB.exe (if you have two of both, its fine)
    -4. right click on each of them>properties>programs and services
    -5. make sure that "all programs that meet the specifications" is checked
    -6. then go to the "Advanced" tab and check all 3 boxes. Domain, Private and Public.
    -7. REMEMBER TO DO THIS FOR ALL PnkBstr Files. then save and quit.
    -8. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 and delete "Pb" folder.

    Hi,

     Go to your BFH install Folder and run pbsvc.exe. Then choose uninstall/remove Punkbuster

    - download and run Punkbuster Setup from: http://www.evenbalance.com/


    - In Pb-setup add a Game and choose Battlefield 4 and as game Path your BF Hardline Folder then update Punkbuster
    - close Punkbuster Setup


    - run pbsvc.exe from your BFH install Folder again and re-install the service

    Hopefully it will work! Thanks to ( fullban ) via Battlelog:  http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bfh/forum/threadview/2955065240887398722/


    TIP: You dont need to run pbsvc.exe after closing Pb Setup
