OK, so you join a game, the mission loads, and you get kicked and have no idea what the reason was? Here is how you find out.
1) Locate your Arma 3 AppData folder. You will find it in this location:
[pre]C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Arma 3[/pre]
Replace username with your Windows user/login name.
2) Locate the NEWEST .rpt file
You will find a couple of files ending in ".rpt" that are really just plain text ("report") files. Locate the LATEST one by sorting the folder by date. The files all have a general naming scheme
arma3_2015-11-10_20-50-31.rpt
with 2015-11-10_20-50-31 being the exact time when the file was created. You will want the newest of these.
3) Open the file in a text editor, and search for the characters "Missing addons". This should look something like this:
[pre]19:26:38 Missing addons detected:
19:26:38Â thirskw_fix[/pre]
Now, the addon name in Arma 3 does not necessarily equal the pbo name, however, the displayed information should be sufficient to give you an idea as to what you are missing.
