How to unlock a file from someone else in Team Foundation Server


We have a project that is stored within our TFS server and some files were Checked-Out by me from another computer and another user (both of which are not used anymore). Is there a way to force the unlocking of the file (no changes were made to it so it's safe to do so if I can only do it).


Solution

  • If you login into the source control with the admin account, you will be able to force undo checkout, or check in with any file you provide.
