Problem using with tortosesvn 1.6.9 on Windows 7: "Can't determine the user's config path."

I installed the 32-bit windows version of TortoiseSVN using the msi
installer (TortoiseSVN-1.6.9.19725-win32-svn-1.6.12.msi). Everything worked
fine for a while. After a few hours, TortoiseSVN stopped working. Whenever
I tried any command, I got an error dialog: "Can't determine the user's
config path." (This dialog appears even for the "about" command.)

I uninstalled and reinstalled using the same msi. This cured the problem for
a few hours, and then it stopped working again exactly the same way. I have
uninstalled and reinstalled four times now, and the behavior is exactly the
same each time - a few hours of bliss followed by a failure that is cured by
reinstalling..

(In addition to the first error dialog, some commands cause a second error:
"Can't determine the user's config path. Check the path and/or URL you've
entered." For example, "Repo-browser" and "Check for modifications" both
cause this.)

I run TortoiseSVN without any trouble at all on several other machines. All
of the other machines are joined to the same domain.

I will be happy to provide any additional information on the problem. Thanks
in advance.
