TortoiseSVN 1.14.6 (64-bit) and 'Protected folder access blocked'

[Kenneth Johnson]

Thanks for the prompt release of a version incorporating KEX Strict (PuTTY .80).

Two Windows 10 systems at a site I administer have seen 'Protected folder access blocked' notifications after installing TSVN 1.14.6.  I installed it on the system assigned to me yesterday afternoon, and saw the first notification a few minutes ago:

App or process blocked:  TSVNCache.exe

Protected folder %userprofile%\Documents\somepath\someotherpath\.svn\

On my system, so far, this only affects TSVNCache.exe.  On another system, almost every program that tried to write anywhere in %userprofile%\Documents\... was blocked.  That symptom went away when we uninstalled TSVN 1.14.6.  It came back only for TSVNCache.exe when we re-installed TSVN 1.14.6.  We did check the signature on the installer, and it looked good.

It looks like work-arounds should be available in the more restricted symptom case by specifying TSVNCache as an 'allowed app'.

If anyone else sees this, perhaps we can compare notes.

Regards,

Ken
