- Under the External Programs category select Diff Viewer»Advanced.

- Under the Advanced diff settings select Add.

- Type .vi in the Extension of mime-type box
- In the External Program box, type the following and click OK:
- 64-bit systems:
"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Shared\LabVIEW Compare\\LVCompare.exe %mine %base -nobdcosm -nobdpos - 32-bit systems:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\LabVIEW Compare\LVCompare.exe" %mine %base -nobdcosm -nobdpos - If you get an error in this step, (e.g. "LVCompare was called with incorrect parameters") make sure there are no extra spaces or characters.

To compare a VI with the previous version in the repository right-click the VI in Windows Explorer and select TortoiseSVN»Diff With Previous Version.
