Don't know why I cannot view the 78 reviews that others have written. Microsoft - get with the "app" process - we all expect to see other reviews before we buy a product...
I see problems with Team Members and Cisco Webex Connect version 7.2.0.16843 I had to disable that feature (Team Members and Team Members Contact Synchronization) Hope they fix it soon :(
Same problem as mentioned by 'by Jon Kirby | March 09 2012 ' Visual studio crashes againa and again . I have to uninstall the Tools to make my visual studio work. Thats a shame I can't even use the Tool. Iam hoping some update will be done in order to solve the issue. Else it makes simply useless.
The Team Explorer changes causes Visual Studio to crash whenever you go to Team Explorer. This happens on our main development machines but not on our virtual build machine. On the build machine the additions seem good.
The Windows Explorer integration works fine and is good.
Rating it down due to it's stability issues on some machines.
I have installed the December 2011 version and it has made Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate unstable when using Team Foundation Server functionality. I seem to be able to check in and check out OK, but trying to use Team Explorer is problematic. Any suggestions of finding a fix for it?
Thanks,
Jon
Hi all,
I've run the test attachment cleaner tool against the TFS DB and according to the reports generated I should have freed up several GBs of space. However my database doesn't show any more free space available. Am I missing a step somewhere?
This is getting critical on our side as every day, our automated tests add 1GB of data to the server and we can't add more space forever.
What kind of support is offered on that tool?
thanks,
Tony.
Have you tried connecting to the database directly and running a compact against it?
Open SQL Server Mangement Studio, Right click your TFS_{Whatever} DB, Click Tasks-> Shrink -> Files
They default shrink should have you shrinking Data Files on the Primary Filegroup. Just click OK and it should free the space.
Right now we distribute our check-in policies to our teams using the TFS Power Tools (as described at http://www.codewrecks.com/blog/index.php/2010/12/04/distributing-visual-studio-addin-for-the-team/). This works great in VS 2010, but we installed the Developer Preview of VS Next and it doesn't recognize any of our check-in policies; it gives us errors that the required check-in policies are not installed, so we have to "override check-in policy" in order to check files in.
Is anyone having this issue with the WITDesigner and VS 2010 SP1?

After using the WITDesigner with VS 2010 SP1, the code editor for at least C# become about as useful as a plain text editor.
When a scheduled task does a backup, ConfigPT.xml is accessed using the machine's credentials (MACHINENAME$).
When I take a full backup from the GUI, ConfigPT.xml is accessed using my credentials (DOMAIN\username).
I think the same credentials should be used in both cases.
When opening Work Item from Server, the message:
The format of one argument does not meet the contract of the method. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131537)
Strangely, it is happening on one pc, but on another, opening the same work item opens (and saves) successfully. Both have the August Power Tools installed.
As per the thread at:

this appears to be related to editing the Global List using the Power tools (which we have been doing) but I cannot solve the issue. I suspect there is an issue with Power Tools editing the Global List - any suggestions to diagnose further, and hopefully solve. If the Power Tools Team are monitoring this group, could this issue be looked at please?
This may be a simple issue, then again it may not. When starting the Team Foundation Server Admin Console we are greeted with a Team Foundation Error (There is an error in XML document (0,0). I am not sure that issue is causing the one I am writing about, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Then when going to Team Foundation Backups it says "Initializing" and stays there forever (we let it stay up for about 3 hours at one point). What is going wrong, I have yet to see others with this specific issue, only issues after they click on the backup wizard or backups that fail, but we can't even get that far. All we have is a blank white screen in the admin console that says "Initializing". Please, any help would be very much appreciated. Cheers!!!
I have yet to solve this issue, we would really hope to use this tool with TFS, but can't figure out a way to do it. I forgot to ask, does it matter what version SQL you have to use the TFS Backup feature. Can we use SQL Express with the TFS Power Tools. Please any information you can give would be helpful and appreciated. Cheers!!!
