Hello,

I have several machines where TortoiseSVN does not work after upgrading from 1.13.1 to 1.14.0 - context menu is missing. The problem reproduces consistently: install TortoiseSVN 1.13.1 (the context menu works), upgrade to 1.14.0 (the menu is missing). Tried restarting the computer before and after upgrading - the context menu is still missing. I can solve the problem by running the Repair command in TortoiseSVN's installer (via the *.msi or via Control Panel | Programs and Features).

Reproduced with:

* Windows Server 2019 Standard (10.0.17763 Build 17763)

* Windows 10 Pro for Workstations (10.0.18363 Build 18363)

Attached are the logs of installing TortoiseSVN 1.13.1 and upgrading to 1.14.1.

Thank you.

Hi,

today I also tried to upgrade from 1.13.1 to 1.14.0 and can also reproduce this problem. After upgrading (or a fresh install) the menu is missing and when trying to call the startmenu shortcut several windows complaining about missing dll files are popping up.

Cheers,

Nicki

Hello,

I think that the bug is going to be fixed in a patch update. See this thread: https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tortoisesvn-dev/6a0e9a39-a32e-4184-8e3d-3591445db824%40googlegroups.com

Now you can solve the problem by repairing TortoiseSVN via Windows Installer. Follow these steps:

Go to Control Panel | Programs and Features,
Find TortoiseSVN 1.14.0 in the list of installed applications,
Run the Repair command for TortoiseSVN 1.14.0.

Alternatively, you can start the TortoiseSVN 1.14.0 MSI (e.g., TortoiseSVN-1.14.0.28885-x64-svn-1.14.0.msi) and select the Repair command.

The problem will be solved when the repair is done.

Hope this helps.
