Accessing Context menu causes Explorer to crash

[plymplan]

When Bazaar Explorer is running, I cannot access Win Explorer context menu. Attempting to access causes Win Explorer to crash.

I used ShellExView to disable TortoiseBazaar ContextMenu Shell Extension which immediately restored context menu function.

I am running WinXP Home SP3

I don't understand how related Bazaar Explorer (which is simple standalone application) to TortoiseBzr and standard Windows Explorer.

Do you mean that you don't have context menu in the Bazaar Explorer tree view? This is intended behavior.

[Ian Clatworthy (ian-clatworthy)]

This sounds like a TortoiseBzr bug? Unlike TortoiseBzr, Bazaar Explorer doesn't hook into Windows internals in any way.

Please tell me what version of TortoiseBZR and BZR-Explorer you used.
Is this bug reproducable with bzr-1.18.1 and bzr-explorer 0.7?

And please get shell extension's log with tbzrtrace.exe

I am travelling this week; will get back to you later next week when I
return to my office and can review my install.
