After uninstall, the backup folder is left in place, that is where this warning comes from. > Ok, went ahead. > Rebooted. > Control click menu items present. > None of them worked. > Went to the command line (cmd.com) > C:\>hg version > The system cannot execute the specified program. Sigh. I think this is a runtime library mismatch. Microsoft has released a "security patch" for msvcr*.dll but has not released new redistributable packages for them yet. This is biting people all over the place right now. What I suspect happened in this case is I copied my patched version of msvcr80.dll into the installer, but it doesn't match the version that certain python libraries were compiled against. Just guessing, but if you delete the msvcr*.dlls inside the TortoiseHg folders one at a time, hg.exe may find the correct version it needs on your machine. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
