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?

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!

Do you have any other explorer extensions loaded (TortoiseSVN?)?

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.
