I just installed VS2010 and I want to connect to TFS, But I don't have any team explorer options.
I searched for Team Explorer and I found this link that states that Team Explorer comes preinstalled in VS2010 Team Suit.
I downloaded VS2010 Pro and don't have team explorer and can't find it anywhere.
Any ideas? Tips?
Thanks
I think there's been a misunderstanding down MS naming conventions.
All versions of Visual Studio 2010 have the ability to conenct to TFS built in, there is no longer a separate install (what was previously called Team Explorer).
What the Ultimate edition gets with what is now called Team Explorer (codename Eaglestone) is a standalone rich client for accessing TFS.
If you downloaded VS2010 Pro...you didn't download a version that came with Team Explorer. You need to re-download VS2010 Team System. You can grab it from MSDN or download it from:
Visual Studio 2010 Team System Beta 1 Download
UPDATE
As of Beta 2, Microsoft renamed versions a little. TFS Connectivity is now included with 'Ultimate'.
It looks like Team Explorer is also available as a separate download. The VS 2010 Beta 2 version is here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=CA86215B-A824-44E7-B4C3-982C7ECEA46D&displaylang=en
The RTM version of Team Explorer is here: Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer 2010 - ISO
VS2010 Pro is a different release from VS2010 Team Suit and it doesn't contain anything that has to do with TFS. If you want to connect to TFS you need to get the VS2010 Team Suit release.
This has been the norm ever since VS2005.
You can download Visual Studio Team Explorer (or the command line tools) from the following:
Team Explorer 2013
Team Explorer 2012
- Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer Everywhere 2010
- Team Explorer 2008
- Team Explorer 2005
