Did you restart your machine?
Update:
I ran into the same problem myself! It happened when I installed version 1.6 over 1.5. When I restarted my machine, I found Tortoise entries in Start Menu but not via context menu. When I clicked on "Settings" an error message appeared. So, I uninstalled 1.6 and installed it anew. Now it's working again! Yes, available through context menu. I believe it's a bug.

I did.When I try to execute the program from the "start" link, it even pops up a message saying: "Tortoise SVN is integrated into the windows explorer.... right-click on any folder"

Did you try creating a new folder and then right-clicking on it? Maybe you were clicking on a folder that TortoiseSVN doesn't have permission to put files in to.

Aside from first rebooting...
Are you running 64-bit or 32-bit Windows? Tortoise runs as a shell extension so if your Windows OS is 64-bit and you installed the 32-bit version of Tortoise, you won't see the context menus.
On a side note. If you use a 32-bit tool like Total Commander in a 64-bit OS, and you want context menu extensions in both Explorer and Total Commander, you will actually have to install both the 32-bit and 64-bit version of Tortoise.

There is a long list of reasons why TSVN isnt working in your case. Your best bet is to have a look at the TortoiseSVN support list, failing that post a message to the list - they are a frendly bunch.
Ouch, looks like I cant post links yet - go to google-groups and look for TortoiseSVN, there are two lists tortoisesvn-dev and tortoisesvn, dont ask on the dev list you will be kindly asked to ask on the 'user' list

I have the same problem on the computer with Win Xp Home 32. I tried to remove tsvn and to install it again but nothing helps. If anybody ever had this problem and has a solution I'll be very thankful.

Windows XP Pro 32, my TortoiseSVN context menus disappeared following a reboot with a recent batch of Windows updates. Tried uninstall, reboot, install, reboot, no joy. Tried uninstall, using TortoiseSVN's separate ClearInstall tool to clear out registry entries, reboot, then reinstall and reboot, still no context menus.

Similarly to what others above have suggested, i encountered this problem and the root cause was 32 v 64 bit. I installed WANDisco Subversion - and in the process auto installed TortoiseSVN as well.
The version it installed was 32 bit however, and i had to uninstall that and reinstall the 64 bit version of TortoiseSVN separately.

I was having the same issue on Windows 7 64-bit. I reinstalled a number of times, but still could not see the context overlays in Explorer. So I looked at the changelogs of TortoiseSVN and saw a recommendation to do a Repair install. That solved my problem.
