The prior instance of TFS I was using is no longer available and I have a test project I want to bind to the new instance of TFS. However, when I try to add the solution to source control, the error message tells me that the collection is not available on the server. I have deleted all old source control files, and it still has the old bindings somewhere.

Does anyone know how to remove ALL bindings so I can just simply start over again with a new instance of TFS?

Thanks.

Goto File->Source Control->Change Source Control, unbind/disconnect all projects and solution.

  • This does not work. I do highlight each project, but eh Disconnect button never is active. Only the unbind button is active. – Mike Malter Dec 31 '10 at 16:59

Mike .... Don't have the answer, but I do have some questions. So you have gone into Team Explorer and added the name of the new TFS Server? And this new server has a collection name of the same name that the solution was in on the old server, and this collection name is what is in Team Explorer?

    Mike --- you may find this helpful. http://zayko.net/post/How-to-permanently-remove-TFS-Source-Control-association-bindings.aspx It purports to show you how to manually remove SCC bindings. Not the best solution, but if it works?? – JBiddison Jan 01 '11 at 01:43
  • This is the right answser, but there is a very BIG but. If your TFS server is not available and you do anything else to your project you are hosed! – Mike Malter Jan 04 '11 at 04:47
