Using Source Control Explorer in Visual Studio 2022

Source Control Explorer is what I have used in the past to manage my Team Foundation version control (TFVC).

In Visual Studio 2019 (and earlier verions), you could open Source Control Explorer by navigating to View | Other Windows | Source Control Explorer. However, this window can't be found here in VS2022.

Has this functionality been completely removed or is there still a way to access Source Control Explorer using Visual Studio 2022?

Follow below steps to add the TFS server:

  • Manage Connections -> Connect to a project option in the Team Explorer (use View -> Team Explorer if not available) and connect to the project.
  • Click Add Azure DevOps Server, input tfs server URL and choose Add.
  • Then the list of projects you have access will be listed below, select a project and connect.

Then the Source control menu option will be made available in the usual place View | Other Windows | Source Control Explorer.

These are the steps from Visual Studio Professional 2022

Use Team Explorer for Visual Studio 2022 only when Visual studio Developer not installed.
