I am currently using TFS with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate and getting this error when I try to open up my solution:
The associated source control plug-in is not installed or could not be initialized. Common causes for this error include server unavailability and/or incorrect workspace mappings.
My connection to TFS and the VPN we have to use work, I have tried them on another machine and there are no problems. There is only a problem on my machine. It isn’t holding any of the bindings either.
What could the problem be? Something with my install of Visual Studio?
It sounds like your bindings to the TFS server are messed up in your solution file. You should try removing the bindings manually in there by editing the solution file using a text editor.
There should be a Global section in the file, which is where all of the settings for this are located. look for GlobalSection(TeamFoundationVersionControl) and remove that entire section down to EndGlobalSection.
Once you do that, reload the solution and tell it to go back online and your bindings should be working again.
