RE: Re: Windows 10 Tortoise Commit Window Hangs (and Resolution)

I've been having this issue again as well, but changing default programs has not helped me this time.

I'm actually not sure the cause, as I rebooted for a tortoise update and my PC did Windows updates at the same time. Possibly a Windows update is involved. I did also hear that a recent Win update is causing default programs to be reset repeatedly, which seems like it could be related.

However there is every chance that this is a new issue or at least a new cause of the same symptom. This new post might also indicate that other users are having this issue: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=3163035 . I have similar behavior to this where the client seems slow only if I haven't used it recently and is then fast on repeated uses.

I tracked this down the first time by seeing old posts about the same symptoms with a different cause - that person had unregistered the handler for a file type somehow in an invalid way. So it seems like SVN might be prone to hangs based around showing file type icons, with different causes being possible.

An interesting feature request might be the ability to disable these icons. This functionality isn't really necessary for me, and I understand that dealing with the OS here is probably responsible for the trickiness no matter how good the implementation, so maybe we could have a workaround of disabling this available as an option.
