Hi Guys,

 

I’m currently installing Windows 7 on a developer PC. Currently 4GB of memory is in the PC, and because it is likely to be more in the future, I installed the 64 bit version.

 

I also installed the latest version of TortoiseSVN (1.6.6). Tortoise doesn’t show up in the context menu’s.

 

I’ve checked the registry for it and it looks all to be correct to me.

 

Is it a general Windows 7 issue or has it to do with the 32/64 bit architecture?

 

Is there a fix? Is it even a known problem?

 

I will happily to put time in it.

 

Best regards,

You need the 64 bit version to make the context menus work with 64 bit
explorer and the 32 bit version to make the context menu work with 32
bit explorer. It is common practice to install both versions on a 64
bit system.

Just want to say I have exactly the same problem. Is this a known issue?

You have given us no new information, so how would we know that?

Which version(s) have you installed?

I have the same problem on 64-bit Windows 7 with the 64-bit version of
TortoiseSVN 1.6.6.

Are you using the 64 bit explorer or the 32 bit explorer?

64-bit version explorer. I had installed the 32-bit version and the 64-
bit version of TortoiseSVN. It wasn't working, so I uninstalled both
and reinstalled the 64-bit version. Now it's working.
