William,
 
TortoiseCVS 1.12 and TortoiseSVN use a common thingy which does the
overlays - hence why installing one installs the other - this helps
people who experience problems when trying to use both pieces of
software on one PC.
 
UAC - user account control:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Account_Control
 
It's on by default - it's the annoying thing in vista/w7 that asks every
two clicks if you'd really like to do that...  It should automatically
pop up when you install an application (like TortoiseCVS).  TortoiseCVS
won't install properly if you don't have local admin permissions.
 
Another obvious question: did you reboot after installing?  Did you log
in as the same user or a different user?
 
Regards,
 

Arthur Barrett

R4
	
	
	After the install of R4, I noticed that two TortoiseSVN packages
were installed too. So I uninstalled both of them AND R4, then
re-installed (thinking that they may have come from a different
package), but the R4 install puts them in place. I also tried just
uninstalling the SVN packages alone and it did not help.
	
	What is UAC? I am not sure what UAC is and don't remember any
questions about it.
	
	Thanks for your help!
	
	Bill

		Bill,
		 
		Do you have UAC on?  Were  you prompted to elevate
during install?  Do you have any other explorer extensions loaded
(TortoiseSVN?)?

Win7 and 1.12 R4
			
			
			Quick background: I had an RC version of Win7
and had installed TortoiseCVS 1.12 R3 and everything was working great.
			
			I just rebuilt my machine with Win7 Professional
and tried installing 1.12 R4. Everything appears to install without
difficulty, but my Icon Overlays within Explorer are not displaying
correctly. All folders and files under CVS control appear with an icon
that looks like a broken image. 
			
			I tried uninstalling and re-installing with 1.12
R3 and that didn't solve the problem.
			
			Any help or ideas on things to try would be
greatly appreciated.
			
			Bill
