As far as I've observed this behavior, it occurs when the IDE is being closed "unexpectedly", eg. crashed. In this case VsTortoise is missing a proper shutdown and cannot remove its buttons. The next time VS starts it creates new buttons. You should be able to fix it by either an uninstall/install or reset VsTortoise using the following commandline:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /resetaddin VsTortoise

/resetaddin also resets custom shortcuts for the specified add-in.

This happens in vs2010 and VsTortoise Build 28beta, too!

I don't want to reset an add-in, loosign custom shortcuts, etc.!

Shouldn't VsTortoise be able to detect buttons, previously added to reuse them, or to recreate them?

Currently I have 24 VsTortoise menu entries in the solution explorer context menu, so any other idea or solution, without the need for me to correct something?

Martin, I feel sorry to say that, but until this has been fixed, the only way to work around this malfunction is whether to reset or uninstall/install VsTortoise.

Good news, I think I've fixed the problem at revision 55394. I'll do a test-run on a few setups tomorrow and will send, if the problem is really solvedm both of you a download link to the fixed version.

I just uploaded VsTortoise 29 beta, which fixs this problem.
