Deleting Team Foundation Services Project

As you try new service, one is bound to make a lot of mess. I did the same with my Team Foundation Services account. After initial testing was done I decided to make a clean start and delete a project.

It took me quite a while to give up on finding delete. It seems that somebody forgot to take his pills during design phase and thus delete button does not exist.

Fortunately, this is just an Team Foundation Server so good old command line will do nicely:

> CD "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE"
> TFSDeleteProject.exe /collection:https://jmedved.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/ Test

The only way to recover this data is by restoring a stored backup of the databases. Are you sure you want to delete the team project and all of its data (Y/N)? Y

Of course, if you want to create new project with same name, do not forget to visit File -> Source Control -> Advanced -> Workspaces in order to remove last traces.
