<p>After upgrading to the latest version of TortoiseSVN (1.5.2.13595), it's context menu is no longer available.</p>

<p>When attempting to run it manually, I get this error:</p>

<pre><code>The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.
Please see the application event log for more detail
</code></pre>

<p>The application log shows this</p>

<pre><code>Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseSVN.dll".
