Problem running TortoiseSVN after installing KDiff3

I'm not sure there is actually a causal relationship here, however, here's
appears to have happened:

 

1)TSVN was working fine

2) installed KDiff3 and told it to configure integration with TSVN and SVN

3) Now when I try to Launch TSVN I get an error message:

"Can't open file 'C:\Documents and settings\All Users\Application
Data\Subversion\Config': Access is denied"

 

The given directory exists and the access rights appear to allow full access
to all users.

 

I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling both SVN and TSVN.

 

HELP!

 

Regards,

Tom Malia

I ran into the same problem today and I figured out what the problem was:
when KDIFF3 is installed (with the option of supporting command-line SVN)
it creates the folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Subversion\config\
The problem is that Subversion is trying to open it as a file "config" - the
same name, but it's a folder, not a file !!!
The temporary workaround is to either remove this "config" folder or rename
it to something else.

Regards, Victor.
