Issue: TortiseSVN locks up Windows Explorer when it cannot contact SVN server

[Alex]

Issue:

When the SVN server is unavailable (this happens for me when I am off my company's VPN), right-clicking in Windows explorer locks up the GUI and freezes explorer for about 30 seconds.

Our company has this issue as well using a VPN. We have a dozen or so in our particular group with confirmation of the issue, but I suspect many more dozens or hundreds might have this problem (company is over 25K Employees). In my case TortoiseSVN can often completely debilitate the windows explorer, so much that even when I just installed Tortoise SVN the open WinExplorer window froze. I have to completely uninstall TortoiseSVN to be able to use my Windows Explorer. 

We've tried version v1.9.7.0 and v1.7.15 all running on Win10 Enterprise. Laptop specs are: 

Processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) E-2176M  CPU @ 2.70GHz   2.71 GHz

Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable)

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Please help! Can my company give some type of donation or purchase order for customer support? I could investigate the options.

If anyone has fixed the issue, please let us know! 

Regards,

Ian

These are fairly old versions. Can you check if there is still an issue with the latest version (1.14.4)?

Kind regards
