RE: Tortoise SVN Context Menu not appearing Windows 8 64 bit

Hi Simon

I did attach the error message but that didn't upload. It was that I was
missing a .svn-base file.

Yes the top foler and I created the .svn-base file by copying another
.svn-base file and renaming it. This was a suggestion on another post.

I am expecting to see Update and Commit menu options from the Context Menu
as I have selected these in the settings area.

Another post recommended to check the rights on the SVN file in Regedit and
this was fine for me.

Go to registry editor using regedit.
Click on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/​shellex/ContextMenuHandlers/TortoiseSVN
Observe error message box saying access is denied.
Right click on the key mentioned above, go to "Permissions"...
In the permission dialog, click on "Advanced"
Click on "Owner" tab, click on your account and click "Apply"
OK the dialog, click on "Add..."
Enter your account name in the text area and click "OK"
OK the permission dialog.
Click on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/​shellex/ContextMenuH​andlers/TortoiseSVN
Check there is NO error message box.

I have attached screen shots of the folder options when I right hand mouse
click on the top folder. Also attached is the Context Menu and you can see
that I have Update and Commit ticked but they are not showing.

Another weird issue is that the SVN Checkout menu option appears on the top
folder but not when I create it as a link in Favourites.

Thanks for your help

What was the error message? What are "these files"?

What was the error message?

What folder? Top level of your working copy or a sub-folder? How did you
delete it? How did you re-create it?

No context menu at all or just not the entries you were expecting?

I have no idea what you mean by 'the regedit file'.

Not without a crystal ball. You are going to have to provide a lot mopre
details. We can't tell what you mean by 'it' and 'the folder'
without seeing what you can see on your screen.
