Please refer the following link http://tortoisesvn.net/node/97. I have also experienced simillar problem and the icon usually starts appearing after two or three reboots.

Answer 2

Maybe it depends on your platform? For 64-bit Windows you need to install 64-bit TortoiseSVN.

Answer 3

Try also to repair the installation, if you upgraded from 1.6.8 or 1.6.9. Just re-launch the TortoisSVN installer and choose "Repair". There are known problems with overlay icons and TortoiseSVN upgrades (see this blog post).

Answer 4

If you have checked out your code onto a network, or removable drive, you need to set some preferences to see the icons.
