• Visual Studio Team System Create Team project without source source control folder

  TFS Beta3 Refresh:   When creating new Team project I chose "Do not create source control folder at this time" on the final step of the wizard but nevertheless source control folder ("$/Project1" in my case) still was created.

Should the workflow monitor sample on the Beta 2.0 SDK display an "X" icon on the activities that threw an exception I'm asking this because I'm not being able to make that, and I don't know if it is a limitation of the app or it is I that am doing something wrong.

• .NET Development System.Management - How to disconnect from remote computer?
