Created Feb 17, 2016 by Bitbucket Importer@bitbucket_importerOwner

Keyboard accelerator for "Hg Workbench" in Explorer shell extension interferes with existing accelerator

Created originally on Bitbucket by zian_choy (Zian Choy)

In Windows 7+ in the United States version, the accelerator key for creating a new folder in Windows Explorer using the context menu is "W". As a result, the following steps will create a new folder:

  1. Go to a folder using Windows Explorer
  2. Press the context menu key on your keyboard
  3. Press "w"
  4. Press "Enter"

Unfortunately, with Tortoise Hg version 3.7.1, Tortoise Hg's entry in the context menu also uses "W" and this breaks the workflow because now, after step 3, Tortoise Hg launches rather than creating a new folder.

Please remove the keyboard accelerator or change it to a letter that is not already used by the operating system.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
