I’ve got admin privileges for TFS, but I also work as a developer in projects that I look after. In Linux-Land, I’d be a normal user and I’d switch to root when I needed to do some admin, how could I do the same re:TFS? Any ideas?

What you want to do is to create a second user who has admin rights, and give your own user normal (contributor) rights.
Then, you will run vs normally to use it as a developer, and run as TFS admin for administrative actions.
To do that, open command line, and use the runas command with the /netonly argument, sending the tfs admin credentials.
