I have my project already added to the online TFS server of Visual Studio. Now I want to unbind the project from the online TFS server. I have already tried unbinding the Project from the advanced options of Source control.

When I try to add the project to the source control after unbinding, the server name of the TFS remains the online TFS server. How can i change the name of the TFS server?

I have tried most solutions given on SO and internet. But nothing could help me to change the name of the tfs server

  • If the solution is still sitting in a local folder which is mapped to the original TFS server then it will try and put it back there. Map a folder to a workspace on the new server. Copy across the unbound solution and try re-adding to source control. It should pick up the new server. We could hand edit the sln file but I suspect it's a workspace thing – rerwinX Jan 15 '16 at 11:22
  • I found the solution for my problem. but i do ot really know the exact steps I followed to add an answer. I added a new tfs server via the team explorer and got it all working. But I also deleted the account i had on online visual studio tfs. But even after deleting i was not able to change the server name; but through the team menu on the navigation bar. – Vini Jan 15 '16 at 11:50

You didn’t completely remove TFS Bindings.

There is a tool to remove Source Control Bindings from Visual Studio Solutions and Projects from msdn: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/saveenr/archive/2012/08/11/a-tool-to-remove-source-control-bindings-from-visual-studio-solutions-and-projects.aspx

More ways and more information for you reference: How can I completely remove TFS Bindings

Moreover, If the online TFS mean Visual Studio Team Services(VSonline), to change your server name(server account), please refer this link Change Visual Studio Team Services account owner from MSDN.
