RE: Re: Tortoise Crashing when proxy not configured properly - not able to change it either

Stefan - I tried the below. I see the keys in two places in the registry. I found it in Tigris.org and TigrisSVN per the below. I have tried to clear the keys as well as delete them. However, each time when I go to the network in the below process, the program still crashes. After the crash I notice that the keys are recreated based on the windows dialog. So I am somewhat stuck on what to do next. Can you advise?
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Steve Chadwick

To get rid of the wrong proxy config, remove the registry key HKCU\Software\Tigris.org\Subversion\Servers\global
but it would help if you could first write down what's in that registry key so I can reproduce the problem and fix it.
