Access denied Tortoise SVN 64 bits

I was using tortoise svn 32 bits in XP without problems.

Now, I installed Windows Vista 64 bits and Tortoise SVN 64 bits.

When I try to do an SVN Update, I got the error

Can´t open file C:....svn\lock: Access denied.

Any ideas?

Since you've reinstalled Windows, it may be that the access rights for your folder(s) are configured wrong, so that an unknown SID is the owner or has read/write permission but not your user account.

Maybe check the file permissions of your local SVN files and make sure that your current user/your TortoiseSVN process has the neccessary access rights to change these files.

I had this issue too upgrading from 1.8.8 to 1.9.2. It was because TSVNCache.exe was running.

you can look at this post to download an older build of tortoise svn 64-bit to see if you are having similar problem http://svn.haxx.se/tsvnusers/archive-2011-09/0244.shtml

In my case problematic file was locked by Visual Studio, so I could not either update or clean working copy. Closing VS solved the issue. You can use Unlocker or similar to see if anything is locking your files.
