When the game is running, are PnkBstrA.exe and PnkBstrB.exe running?

Temporary disable Your Anti-Virus, to ensure your AV isn't deleting the PB driver.
Run this:
http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist_PB_Re-Install_Tool_v0_3.bat
edit 21/06/2018, Fixed auto request admin privileges (duck win10).
also, Reboot your PC.

Thanks for help me !

I temporary disable my anti-virus, and run the link you send me.
I restart my computer and log on 25 assist.
After 1 minute maybe, I was kicked for same reason as before..

This worked for two of my friends yesterday, anyone issuing pb restriction kicks nowadays with win10 should give this a try. Gj Possessed

I have Windows10, and have absolutely no PB Kick issues, so it's not Windows10 and it's not Assist.  You have an AntiVirus or something blocking the PnkBstr service executables or it's ports.

Well, I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 and I get kicked often due to PB service failure.
