Overlays appearing in TortoiseSVN 1.8, but not 1.9

I'm using XYplorer 15.80.0100 in Windows Vista, 7 and 10. I am finding that with TortoiseSVN 1.8.11 and 1.8.12, the icon overlays are displayed, but with 1.9.0 or 1.9.2 (I didn't try 1.9.1) the overlays are not displayed. If I switch back to 1.8.12 or 1.8.11 from 1.9.0 or 1.9.2, the icon overlays are displayed.
I have tried removing items from
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
but this has no effect even after restarting.
All working in Windows/File Explorer.

Confirmed, context menu integration is broken as well.
Tortoise: V1.9.2, Build 26806

Forgot to add: the
real problem is that in XY I cannot use Tortoise anymore.
Means: I'm forced to use Windows Explorer (

) to version my XY scripts.
But Don will fix it for sure.

On further investigation, I find there is actually a notice on the download page for TortoiseSVN
http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html

Context menu in file-open/save dialogs on x64 OS
On x64 versions of Windows, the TortoiseSVN context menu and overlays won't show for 32-bit applications in their file-open/save dialogs until you install the 2015 C-runtime for x86
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... x?id=48145. (select the vc_redist.x86.exe file for download).
Note: this only applies to 32-bit applications on x64 OS. The Windows explorer is not affected by this.

I have installed this runtime and now XYplorer works with TortoiseSVN 1.9.
But on the topic of context menus for TortoiseSVN, I find that the 64-bit context menu doesn't have TortoiseSVN options when there's no selection. But I think this should be in a different thread.

Regarding the lack of (click on white) context menu integration, see

Doesn't fix the problem over here (no overlays, no context menu entries).
But thanks for sticking on this issue.

Could you confirm that you are using:
1. 64-bit Windows
2. 64-bit TortoiseSVN
3. 32-bit (x86) "2015 C runtime"
Have you tried the solutions involving deleting entries from these registry keys (which have small limits, 11-15 varying with OS) ?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers

Bingo!
I had downloaded and installed the x64 one (
NoScript was too picky obviously).
Thanks for your detailed checklist and help.
Cheers,
