After installation I did a reboot, nothing changed. It's the installer, failing to install the VC Runtime and then also failing to register the shell extension DLL responsible for handling the overlay icons.īelow are details how to manually fix it but I've already updated our installer and did a rebuild of our last daily, it worked on a fresh Win 10 VM and the overlay icons were shown after a reboot: So please have a look at the owncloud-client and why it makes the nextcloud-client work as it is supposed to work, without a 2nd client i don't use/need.ĮDIT: as you can see in the next 2 comments by and me, it seems that the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable is missing in the nextcloud-client installer.īut as a not-windows-expert i stop my guesses and assumptions now and continue to work with my 🐧. but if you are "Missing overlay icons and the context menu in a fresh Windows 10", it is an integration-issue where you can't blame dropbox. 
but i have no idea how it should/can be solved on the nexcloud side.ĮDIT: just a wild guess, but after looking into the registry it seems to be solved like described at (no idea if this also applies for updating existing installs.)
the overlay dropbox-topic which is really stupid (thanks MS and dropbox! 😠). So IMHO here are at least 2 issues mixed: and thanks for investigating so much and summarizing your findings for all of us!. after uninstalling the owncloud-client, even without revo-uninstaller, the context menu and overlay icons vanished again!. yes, i rebooted the system after every change/install/setting/etc. but then after installing owncloud-client 2.5 (via ), as mentioned at #978 (comment), also the nextcloud context menu appeared, even without a reboot or starting the owncloud-client even once. after registering the dll manually, described at #978 (comment), at least the overlay icons showed up. installing a bunch of different Visual C++ Redistributable packages didn't change anything.ĮDIT: it seems that installing Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable before the nextcloud-client (or reinstalling it afterwards) does the trick. 😞 exacly as described at #978 (comment). 
(via ) and neither the overlay icons nor the context menu were there. On a Win10圆4 Pro testing VM (which never got in touch with dropbox or any other cloud-/sync-software) i installed the nextcloud-client 2.
