TortoiseSVN Keeps Crashing Explorer on Windows Vista


Has anyone else experienced this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled TortoiseSVN as well as followed a suggestion I found online about turning off the icon overlays but Explorer on Windows Vista will still crash when I perform certain operations like pulling up the context menu (i.e. Right Click), hitting the delete key, hitting Ctrl+C and the likes, etc. Even hitting Windows+E crashes explorer often.

It isn't consistent but this happens for the majority of the time. I haven't tried to update to v1.6.3 yet (just noticed that it was released); however, has anyone else experienced this issue and figured out a way to resolve it?

Update: Currently install version is 1.6.2.16344.

Update 2: Uninstalled 1.6.2.16344, rebooted, Installed 1.6.3.16613 and the issue remains.


Solution

  • We had this problem with one release on one of our dev's systems, but upgrading to the latest fixed it. Try upgrading - it will probably correct your issue.
