There is a bug when using the new Windows 11 context menu. If you don't left-click first the specific folder before you right-click it and then use any of the options, Tortoise get confused with what folder you are working with.

I have been able to reproduce this when in a root folder you have checked out different projects or folders. For example, I have 3 folders "A, "B, "C", each one is a different checkout.

If you left-click the folder "A", and then right-click and choose TortoiseSVN/Show Log, it will show the log for folder A. But if I immediately right click folder "C" and try to show the log, it gets confused and it does not show me the log for folder "C" but any other folder that has nothing to do with folder "C".

I assume you're talking about right-clicking on the left tree view?
Unfortunately, that's a problem with the Win11 menu. We try to work around the problem but it does not work reliably.

But it seems this has been fixed internally at MS, so let's hope this fix will be released soon:
