I copied a repository (whole folder) from one computer to another and added the repository to the TortoiseHG workbench through File->Open Repository.
Everything works fine, except no overlay icons are showing in windows explorer in the directory of the copied repository (for whether the file has been modified, or it's up to date, etc). Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks

TortoiseHg provides visual representation of the file status via overlay icons in the MS-Explorer windows. This is similar to those that found on other Tortoise client, such as TortoiseCVS and TortoiseSVN. TortoiseHg shares the overlay icons with TortoiseSVN (version 1.5.
From the revision history viewer (TortoiseHg ‣ Workbench or thg log) open the context menu over the changeset which you want to merge and select Merge with local…. Finally, in the merge dialog, press Merge and then Commit.
Workbench. TortoiseHg is a Windows shell extension and a series of applications for the Mercurial distributed revision control system. It also includes a Gnome/Nautilus extension and a CLI wrapper application so the TortoiseHg tools can be used on non-Windows platforms.
Once all the conflicts are resolved you can close TortoiseHg's resolve conflicts dialog and click next on the merge window. On this next screen you can enter the commit message and then click Commit Now . You are now done.
I found the answer https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/issue/3933/overlay-icons-not-showing-properly - see Shea Martin's reply near the bottom about windows only allowing 11 overlay icon registry entries
