Hello. Using Windows 7 (64) and Webuilder 10.2.0.121.
Previously used Vista 32 and got very used to the right-click access to the Tortoise/SVN options from within the project window of Webuilder - extremely useful for updates and commits, no need to drop into Explorer and navigate to changed files/folders.
Now, with new PC and new install of Windows 7 64, the menus are just not there. They show in Windows Explorer but not in Webuilder. I tried the reinstall/repair 'trick' with Tortoise (newest version, 1.6.11, 64 bit) which people use to rebuild icon overlays, but that did not help.
Any ideas, anyone? Thanks in advance.

Re: Windows 7 (64) and Tortoise menus
No ideas?
Really missing this feature, a pain having to drop into explorer for commits and updates.
Works fine on the Windows 7 32 bit machines here, just not on the 64. No menu, no overlays.

Re: Windows 7 (64) and Tortoise menus
Solved. I'll post this in case anyone else has a similar problem. The solution is to install the 32 bit version of Tortoise, in addition to, not instead, of the 64 bit one.
They install by default into different folders and are apparently quite happy to coexist side by side.
As WeBuilder is a 32 bit app, it needed the 32 bit version of Tortoise for the shell integration to work.
That's more like it, happier now.
