I have installed TortoiseSVN-1.6.12.20536-win32-svn-1.6.15 on Windows 7 Proffesional.
TortoiseProc Launch failed :The requested operation requires elevation.
Any option in the context menu gives the same error.
Already troubleshoot- - uninstall and install
Any ideas?
Solution 3: Disabling UAC Press Windows Key+S on your keyboard. Inside the Search box, type “Change user account control settings” (no quotes), then hit Enter. Now, drag the blue bar down to the 'Never notify' option. Save the changes you made by clicking OK.
Click in the Start orb in the taskbar. In the Search box, type cmd.exe but do NOT press Enter. In the search results window, under Programs, right-click on the program cmd.exe. In the pop-up menu, select Run As Administrator.
Checked that all exe's (including TortoiseProc) have the "run as administrator" option checked.
That's your problem: make sure that option is not checked! Only if you allow TortoiseProc to run as a normal user then you won't get the prompt.
As mentioned, removing the Run as Administrator flag on the TortoiseProc.exe fixed my problem as well, but i was still having issues with the Repo Browser which i was starting from Visual Studio 2008 via the Visual SVN plugin. I was also seeing the error "unable to open ra_local session to URL".
My VS2008 was also set to run as administrator which seems to apply to any programs started from within VS. Turning this off on Visual Studio fixed my problems attempting to browse and access repositories. Thought it was worth a mention as i have spent a few hours trying to get my new Win7 x64 machine with VS2008 working with Tortoise SVN. I never had any issues with my XP box.
