That work on fresh format Windows 10 I Say
You are very recalcitrant. I said that me on a fresh install of windows 10 I had a problem with the punkbuster I did the method that the client suggests which is this: " Close client run as Administrator after click on install and PB fix just pb fix next ,next ,next, Finish Reboot Your computer and Run client normaly and all its fix i have try on fresh windows install and all work after its fix And it works the first time not come and say that what I say is not good but this trick works for sure because I do them short next Friday I format another pc in windows 10 I will record it and upload it to youtube and you will see

Thank you Merlin, I can confirm that I didn't add the windown/system32/pnkbstrb.exe path to my firewall exceptions (I had added all other paths). Now I did this, restarted, and could stay for multiple minutes in the server without a kick.

So my conclusion is that the kick is firewall-related. In my case, I use AVG.

New update: I did get the kick again afterwards. I found out I had a few other programs open, so started testing.
New reboot: it worked again.
Opening a few programs - No problems
Opening Discord - Immediately kicked for pnkbstrB communication issues
Closed discord again - getting kicked again.

Reboot pc -> No problem.

Can everyone who was kicked for this confirm they had discord running?

disabling discord on startup didn't fix my problems, but gave me idea to disable EVERYTHING on boot, both apps and services, aaaand... IT WORKED :) lasted about 10 minutes on server, now on to hunting what's causing the problem, back to starting app and service one by one and testing...   :style:

Good to see that works! So it seems like if we troubleshoot like this, we might find the apps causing this.

for me it looks like the problem was in nextcloud client :shock:

Discord, Steam, Epic Games, Logitech Hub and BattleNet client are looking OK, no kicks with them on startup  :up:

Ignore that, got kicked again :)

something is strange i guess. but let's have a look about this kicking thing is gone or not. i have another idea what the cause could be (for some of us). i checked the logfiles of my aapg servers and i did see this:

what about this:
evenbalance has a "bad" server and some of us are connection to this one?
evenbalance is running 7 punkbuster servers. what when one of them is "corrupt"?
i guess there is maybe not only 1 solution about it at all.

I've been in game for a some time now, but without chrome open and with some app startup disabled, will see how it goes

this with master3.evenbalance is not the solution. but when i do a reboot after a kick, then it seems fine. maybe somthing with the windows startup sequence..
