I am trying to shelve pending changes for a document file in TFS (TFS 2015) web portal, is it possible ? If yes pls assist me.
No, you can only shelve changes from Team Explorer or from command line currently:

I got an issue with the tfs.
Firstly after my tfs server database got full.
So in order to solve it i cleared the table of logs from tfs server.
Now at time of clearing data one of my workspace had checkout of one file. As soon i finished my clearing data, it is giving me this error TF30063: You are not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/8.5. at every time i try to get latest version.
Thats how i am unable to take latest.
Any help would be appritiable.
Right-click solution
Get Latest Version
Try commit again
Issue started for me when I upgraded to VS2017
For me it helps if i just click the Refresh button at the top of the Team Explorer.
After that, the message disappears and i can normally check in.
For me, it helped just to restart Visual Studio.
Clean the Cache folder on client computer. The folder path is: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache.
Clean the Cache folder on Server machine. The folder path is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Application Tier\Web Services_tfs_data
After cleaned, on Server machine, click Start and select Run… to open the dialog box, then input iisreset.exe and click OK, wait it run completely.
I just reconnected to the team project in the Team Explorer and my commit went through, didn't have to restart anything.
I had the same issue. When I closed an open Source Control Explorer window and all the files in Visual Studio, I was able to check in.
I think i got solution, exactly got that how to do.
Do checkout that file and check in an old version of that file
and
than do take latest.
It will not generate this error again.
If you can get a copy of the file that is on TFS you can add it as a new file to TFS, and then do get latest version of the file, and then select keep local when you get the conflict error, and then you can check in the file. After that you can then get latest with no errors.
For me, Run as Administrator from Visual, It will never make this error again.
1 : Open TFS window.
2 : Click on Refresh(F5).
3: Try again to Check-in.

I have faced same issue while check-in on TFS : You are not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/10.0.
Using Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise with the latest update installed v15.2 (26430.4) on Windows 10 64-bit. The issue has been happening for awhile, it is not new with the latest VS update. We're using a TFS repository hosted on Visual Studio Online, i.e. our TFS repository is at COMPANY.visualstudio.com.
Frequently, when checking in, or attempting to shelve changes from the Team Explorer window in VS, I'll get an error message indicating I'm not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/10.0. I've had reports of other developers experiencing this as well.
We've discovered the following workarounds.
Clicking the refresh button on the top of the Team Explorer window and then trying the operation again
If you have multiple workspaces, changing to a different one, then back to the original, then trying the operation again
It appears something is "stale" perhaps with the TFS connection and that refreshing it prevents the error message.
Hitting the refresh button over the Team explorer, resolved the issue.
I had a locked item. When I excluded/undo the locked item it went through.
Refresh TFS not worked for me
In my case the error disappear restarting Visual Studio
or me, it helped just to restart Visual Studio.
We have installed TFS2015 and trying to use the Build and Release functionality.
We got a session from Microsoft , and the administration console of the guy who gave the session got "Build and Release" Menu.
When we tried to install TFS2015 we were not able to see the menu. We can see only XAML Build Configuration under "Additional Tools and Components". Should i install anything else to view the "Build and Release" menu?
Thanks!
The Build and Release menu is exists in TFS 2015 Update 2 and upper version on TFS administration console. If you just install TFS 2015 RTM, you can't see it. Please update TFS to TFS 2015 Update 2/3 and check again. Make sure you didn't install a TFS Express version.
I'm trying to publish a DB project in Visual Studio 2013 Professional and the "Publish" button do nothing.
In project properties I checked "Create script (.sql file)". I right click the project name in solution explorer > Publish... > Load Profile (a profile that works for my colleagues) > Publish
Nothing Happens, not an error, warning or anything (same with "Generate Scripts" button).
Visual studio error logs say nothing and I tried to restart the PC, Visual studio and SQL server.
Thank you!
If you have an Azure Cloud Explorer window open in Visual Studio (could be table, blob or queue), that leads to the Publish of an SSDT project hanging.
Close the window and start a new Publish operation. It may take a little longer than usual but eventually that will progress and you'll be able to close Visual Studio as normal.
Thanks to Noel Abrahams for his comment that led to this answer.
EDIT: putting it here as an answer so that it can be more easily found but credit goes to Noel.
Found a fix on the MS Connect site.
In my publish profile I had set the connection string as so:
<TargetConnectionString>Data Source=.\sql2008r2;Integrated Security=SSPI;</TargetConnectionString>
According to the comments on Connect, it doesn't like Integrated Security=SSPI. Instead you should use Integrated Security=True;:
<TargetConnectionString>Data Source=.\sql2008r2;Integrated Security=True;</TargetConnectionString>
Then it all works fine.
I cloned the solution from VCS to a new directory and only this helped.
Other symptoms that I had with this issue:
While editing a table .sql script, Design pane didn't work.
Integrated Security=True; was set in my publishing profile. So Rhumborl's answer is not about my case.
If the solution folder is copied to another machine the issue is reproduced there too.
I tried to Clean Solution before re-cloning, but it didn't work.
For me publishing the database project to a new sql server database with a different name allowed the publish to proceed. Once I'd done that I was then able to publish to the original database again.
I found that having an Azure Queue or Blob Storage opened in Visual Studio Professional 2015 meant that clicking Publish did nothing and I couldn't close the application. After closing those windows which I had launched from the Cloud Explorer, I had to click Publish once again to kick it off. A strange bug.
I have managed to setup SvnBridge v6.2 with TFS 2012. (Used this to make it work:How to upgrade codeplex solution with reference to TFS2012 library?)
On Server PC we have installed TFS (server), SVN (servser) and IIS (on IIS SVNBridge is setup on port 8081).
On Client PC we have installed VS2010 (TFS) and Tortoise SVN.
Now I am following the SVNBridge website article which mentions that:
Using TortoiseSVN, run a checkout using the following path:
http://<yourwebserver>:8081/<TFSprojectname>
I do the checkout on a folder in TortoiseSVN, enter URL Repository as
http://yourwebserver:8081/TFSprojectname
and choose the checkout-directory as: C:\test on my local PC. The code from the TFS 2012 along with the checked-out files has been copied to the above folder on the PC where I am performing the check-out.
Now I want the code which is being checked-out should go and sit into the TFS 2012.
I was told that we can use SVNBridge for code migration from SVN into TFS. So what is it that I am not doing right?
Since I could not get the SVNBridge to do the migration of code from SVN into the TFS, I have used another tool (free) SVN2TFS:- http://svn2tfs.codeplex.com/
Now I have successfully migrated code from SVN along with revision history and folder structure into TFS2010.
I think now next step is to migrate from TFS 2010 to TFS 2012 which should not be a difficult task.

Why Timely Migration?
Making the move to Team Foundation Server (TFS) can be a major undertaking and one of the most often overlooked tasks is deciding on how you are going to get your source into TFS.
Only importing the tips of your codebase loses a wealth of information and functionality that is the true value of source control systems. Timely Migration is a suite of tools designed to be the complete solution for moving detailed history from your existing source control system.
I have Windows 7 Professional x64. I have Visual Studio 2010 Premium and Visual Studio 2012 Premium installed on my machine.
I installed TFS Power Tools Decemeber 2011. I restarted my computer after successful installation. I then checked out a folder from TFS 2010 but the TFS menu items in Windows Explorer context menu do not appear when i right click on the folder.
I even reinstalled it by uinstalling it, restarting the pc and installing it again then restarting it again but same issue.
I have followed the instructions outlined in here:
TFS Power Tools: Shell Extension : Context Menu Quirky and TFS Icons on Files/Folders missing
But same issue same issue occurs. Would anyone know what else i can do to get the TFS menu items to appear in the context menu please?
Thanks in advance,
I am not sure if this would help or you are willing to use a new version but I had the exact same environment and issue with you.
What I had done is that I uninstalled the old TFS Power Tools ( listed with a "Microsoft Team Foundation Server" prefix and/or "Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server" in Control-Panel/Programs-and-Features ) and install a newer version which is RTM. You can download them at http://www.microsoft.com/en-nz/download/details.aspx?id=35775 and install the following in the same order listed below
Team Foundation Server 2012 RTM Power Tools.msi
Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2012 Update 1 Power Tools.msi
Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2012 Update 2 Power Tools.msi
Close Visual Studio before you start then restart after installing, you should see your context menu afterwards together with the green arrow that indicates it is in TFS
Here is a screenshot of it
Also please take note that after installation this would not happen instantaneously as advised on this post: TFS Power Tools: Shell Extension : Context Menu Quirky and TFS Icons on Files/Folders missing
It sometimes takes a while for the TfsComProviderSvr.exe to check if
the local folder is a workspace and register the shell extension.
So this depends on many variables, your TFS server speed, your machine speed and your network speed. In my case I left it overnight to fully show everything.
Windows has a limit on home many overlay icons it can support. This started happening to me after i installed google drive, one drive, and dropbox and the TFSOverlay got pushed down to the bottom in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer \ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
You can fix it by either
Uninstalling some of the overlay apps. (Eg: remove Google drive
or Dropbox)
Rename the TFS folders in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer \ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers to start with numbers so they take priority (Eg: "1TfsOverlayAdd" , "2TfsOverlayEdit" etc.).
Also there is usually a delay for the green icons to appear in the folder explorer, so be patient.
I was having the same problem and just I executed this file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2012 Power
Tools\TfsComProviderSvr.exe
After a few minutes the menu appeared.
This problem also occurs when you are running Visual Studio under different credentials (i.e. an account with Administrator privileges) than the logged on user. Logging on as that same user displays the ShellExtension correctly. But that's just not an option here...
I have not yet found a solution. It would be a nice feature to be able to set some options for TfsComProviderSvr.exe, so that one can let it watch workspace folders for a different 'Team Member' than the logged on user...
I've tried running Explorer.exe with other credentials, but that does not spawn a new TfsComProviderSvr.exe. Starting it by hand with the different credentials also does not seem to work. An instance of TfsComProviderSvr.exe is always (re)spawned for the currently logged on user.
Forgive me for sharing the obvious, but I had a similar issue, and in my case it appears that the default selected installed features were different than I expected.
I reran the installer using "Modify" instead of "Repair" and confirmed that the Windows Shell Extension feature was selected for installation:
I'm running a similar environment (VS 2010 Shell with VS 2013 Professional). Perhaps that impacts the defaults.
Here is the Power Tools Installer that I used.
I had a similar issue, I ripped off old the version, gave me some issues as you have to stop the TFS process and the explorer process but you can always restart explorer again once the old version has been uninstalled.
Then I restated my machine.
Installed latest version: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/b1ef7eb2-e084-4cb8-9bc7-06c3bad9148f ( version 11.0.60506.0 )
Restarted my pc again
Navigated to a source control folder and all TFS icons and shell extensions now started to appear.
Bottom line, the latest version worked for me, did not have to fiddle with reg'values at all.
Here's how I fixed mine. I had installed Visual Studio 2015 and installed TFS Power Tools for VS 2015. I also installed Visual Studio 2017. I generally use VS 2017 and had attached to TFS there. I hadn't attached VS 2015 to TFS and the power tools menu would not show up in explorer. I finally realized that when they say you have to have the same version of Visual Studio installed that you ALSO have to have that visual studio Team Explorer connected to TFS. You don't have to use it beyond that, but it must be connected using the dialog, like you see here.
