I've recently installed a fresh win8 copy. After installing tortoiseSVN, it does recognize the folders as being under version control (the menu items are there), but no overlays on the icons.
I Checked the registry settings as described here: TortoiseSVN icons not showing up under Windows 7
But the first 9 entries are all for tortoiseSVN and there are 4 others, so no problems there.
What could be the problem?
Go to regedit. Find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers.
Add space before folders, example: "1TortoiseNormal" -> " 1TortoiseNormal".
Restart computer.
Works for me.
Go to TortoiseSVN > settings > Icon Overlays > Status cache changed from default to shell.
If the drive A, B or network is used check that drivew
Please try this :
Sometimes you just have to restart Windows (if not already done).
You could also have to do a "Cleanup" (right click, Tortoise SVN shell entry) of your working copy, and to check "Refresh shell overlays" in the window.
Also, please review "Icon overlays" tab of Tortoise settings (right click, Tortoise SVN shell entry, Settings) settings of your tortoise SVN, especially if your working copy is (for example) on amovible or network drive.
In my case, the problem was that I was working on a network drive. By default, Tortoise doesn't show icons on network drives.
To enable the icons on other types of drive, right-click in Windows Explorer and go to:
TortoiseSVN --> Icon Overlays --> Drive Types
This may also solve the problem in other cases, where other drives are in use and not showing icons for you.
you have to do an svn actualization (in my case a fully checkout). just restart the explorer (or computer) after configure the registry did not show the overlay icons in my case
Modifying the registry, tsvn clean up etc did not help anything.
Solved it by killing the process 'TortoiseSVN status cache' in task manager. Icons reappeared one by one after that.
In TSVN settings I've set the Status Cache to default (was None initially), but not sure this had anything to do with it. Also restarted explorer.exe to be sure.
I had an older/non-compatible version (1.6) of TSVN installed before updating to latest (1.8.8). This could have been part of the problem.

I was getting this error when trying to install Atom using the installer.
I tried to run as Administrator but ever having the same error.
So I opened the Setup Log and found this line in many places of the log:
Failed to load local releases, starting from scratch: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\david\AppData\Local\slack\packages\RELEASES'.
To resolve this problem, I simply tried to change the AppData folder properties, unchecking the Attribute "Read-Only" and applying to subfolders.
After that, I could install the application and everything is working well.
I don't know whether what I did was the best solution, but it fixed my problem :)
Hope this help someone
If you have anti-virus installed on your system. Please disable it and try it once. Hope this will work for you because this worked for me like a charm.
One more thing you can check that your windows update service is also running. You check it out in Task Manager ->
So do this thing and check it out.
This is a permission related issue. Could be you don't have permission to write, in that case run as Administrator.
Right Click on the installer and select Run As Administrator.
If you still have the issue, disable your antivirus, defender or whatever you have to protect your PC from threats. Once Installed Enable it BACK
if you have Dropbox opened, close it.
You can try this:
open control panel
Windows firewall
click allow an app or feature through windows firewall
In that at right bottom click allow another app
Browse the downloaded atom.exe file and click open and click ok
first uninstall or disable the antivirus. In my case Guardian net secure was handling all the things of windows firewall. so i was not able to allow the app through windows firewall. therefore, it is necessary to uninstall these. then restart your laptop.
after restarting open control panel. go to windows firewall. on left top you will see
allow an app or feature through windows firewall . click on it. dialog box appears. click on change settings. at bottom click allow another app. then browse the downloaded file atom.exe. then install it
What worked for me was closing Slack and terminating any of it's processes in Task Manager.
This was what worked for me (Windows 11):
Go to properties>compatability on the installation file. Run the troubleshooter for compatibility, and it shoul provide a solution, wait, and if it works, select that it did so, and you’re all done.
To resolve this problem, I simply tried to change the AppData folder properties, unchecking the Attribute "Read-Only" and applying to subfolders.
After that, I could install the application and everything is working well.
This worked for me on Windows 11 home version.
Hope this helps
I managed to install by finding an older version.
I've installed eclipse Mars.1 Release (4.5.1), and than i've installed spring plugin as i always do with a new linux installation (by the way i am running Manjaro Linux 15.09 fully updated with KDE) but this time i am facing a problem i have never seen before!
Everytime i go to the preferences window, the right pane won't update according to the selected option.
Ex: when i open the preferences window, if i try to drill down the "General" option, the right pane won't update, no matter what i choose in the left pane!
Can anyone help?
I had the same problem. The reason was because Eclipse didn't set up completely - there was some background tasks running (freezing actually).
Try to run Eclipse with another JRE version. I have this problem with 8u60, but everything is fine (as fine as it can be with Eclipse) when I use 8u45.
Off topic - I strongly recommend everyone to stop using Eclipse and go to Intellij IDEA. Your life will become much more happy.
UPD I faced that problem again with the new workspace, so maybe this isn't about JRE version. Try to wait a few minutes, reopen workspace again, this worked out for me.
I've been having issues with TortoiseSVN 1.9 and IntelliJ 14 for a while, which disappeared after downgrading Tortoise to 1.8 (thank you, Lazy Badger for the answer).
Now whenever I right-click a folder I get a popup titled "CrashHandler initialization error" and the following message: "C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\SendRpt.exe not found". It's a native crash handler of Tortoise, but its exe is not in the bin folder for some reason.
Tortoise works, it's not a blocking issue, but a very annoying one.
Wanted to attach a screenshot, but don't have enough reputation. :/
#Olga VDB's answer works. But for anyone who doesn't want to reboot their PC - just killing/re-starting Explorer.exe works too.
Actually just needed to reboot PC. Not deleting the question, maybe it will help someone else.
Just go to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features. Click on TortoiseSVN and do "Repair". Its will get it resolved this issue.
Control Panel > Programs, Uninstall the prior version of Tortoise SVN.
Reboot.
Go to the folder where SVN had been installed and, if it is not already empty, manually delete any remaining files. ( If the DLL files in the bin folder are locked and you cannot delete them, rename them individually, e.g. from .DLL to .DLL.off. After the next reboot cycle, you will find that the files can be deleted. )
Then install the new version of Tortoise SVN.
Although the above answers seem quicker, if you have already tried them and you are still getting endless crash handler error messages every time you right-click anything in Windows File Explorer, go through this complete cycle to clear up the problem.
This worked for me on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit "1703", going from Tortoise SVN v1.9.5 to v1.9.6.
There is an explanation about the different versions of the Tortoise SVN crash handler on the Tortoise SVN site
I have been experiencing a problem with tortoise .
when i checked out the code the tortoise icons usually green or red on the folders are not coming.Any solution???
Thanks in advance.
1 - Check If Your TortoiseSVN Settings are Correct
Right-Click in an SVN Folder >> TortoiseSVN >> Settings
Select Icon Overlays:
1. Status Cache to Default
2. Drive Types: (SELECT) Network Drive, Fixed Drive
2 - Find out if there are too many Icon Sets installed in Windows
Window allows up to 11 IconSets, if other programs like DropBox are installed they will hijack those spots
Since we are working in the registry, be careful not to edit things, unless you are sure!
Run regedit
Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/WINDOWS/EXPLORER/ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
If there are more than 11 Folders, then you have too many IconSets
:: In my case, it was because of DropBox - the folder names were ("DropboxExt1","DropboxExt2") and my Tortoise was named (1TortoiseNormal,2TortoiseModified)--The problem is that Windows reads this and enables them based on alpha numeric order ('"' comes before '1' in the alphanumeric stack)
SOLUTION : If you had the same problem as me, you can simply rename the Dropbox registry listings. I renamed my Dropbox listings from('"DropboxExt1"') to ('X"DropboxExt1"'), just adding an 'X' to the beginning of the registry. >>Restart your machine to see the registry listing take effect.
Try also to repair the installation, if you upgraded from 1.6.8 or 1.6.9. Just re-launch the TortoisSVN installer and choose "Repair". There are known problems with overlay icons and TortoiseSVN upgrades (see this blog post).
If you have checked out your code onto a network, or removable drive, you need to set some preferences to see the icons.
Please refer the following link
http://tortoisesvn.net/node/97. I have also experienced simillar problem and the icon usually starts appearing after two or three reboots.

TortoiseSVN icons not showing up under Windows 7
You can go to TortoiseSVN>Settings>Icon Overlays>Status Cache.
If default is selected then change from default to shell. If shell is selected then change it from shell to default. it should fix it.
Maybe it depends on your platform? You need to install 64-bit TortoiseSVN if you want the TortoiseSVN Overlay icons in Windows Explorer, because Windows Explorer is 64-bit on Windows 64-bit.
see http://tortoisesvn.net/faq.html#nomenus
Make sure you have installed the x64 version of TortoiseSVN if you're
using XP or Vista 64-bit. Since the explorer on those OS versions is a
64-bit application, it can not load the 32-bit version of TortoiseSVN.
You can still keep the 32-bit version of TortoiseSVN installed on
those OS versions though: it will show up in the 32-bit applications
file-open/save dialogs of those applications.
In the recent versions of the TortoiseSVN, old _svn folders are deprecated. it's better to rename them to .svn.
attrib -h _svn
rename _svn .svn
attrib +h .svn
Using Windows 7 Ultimate on 64bits. Why isn't it showing? I can find tortoise svn in the start menu and when I launch it it says the application is a shell extension but it doesn't show.
I just installed this at work this morning and now I want to install it at home. Any help? Why won't it show? I have already rebooted my machine.
Did you install the 64-bit version?
You need 64 bit TortoiseSVN on 64 bit Windows because otherwise, its Explorer won't "see" Tortoise.
The best thing is actually to install both to make sure Tortoise works in the folder views of 32-Bit applications like IDE's, too.
Note that x64 users can install both the 32 and 64-bit versions side by side. This will enable the TortoiseSVN features also for 32-bit applications.
If you get the TortoiseSVN specific commands when right-clicking a file or folder in Explorer, it works.
Did you reboot? You need to restart explorer.exe
TortoiseSVN is a shell extension and not a regular desktop application like WinCVS. All commands are available from the Context menu. I suggest be first familiar with svn commands and how they work and then try to use the same commands through TortoiseSVN.
