How to: Add or Remove a Team Project
Team Explorer displays team projects from one Team Foundation Server. If your team has already created a team project, you can add it to Team Explorer. You can also remove a team project from Team Explorer when you leave the team or the team project is no longer active. Adding and removing team projects in Team Explorer does not affect or delete team projects on the Team Foundation Server.
Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator or your team project administrator to make sure that your user account has the permissions described in the following section.
Required Permissions
To add a team project you must be a member of both the Team Foundation Valid Users security group and the Readers security group for the team project. If the necessary security permissions are set explicitly, you must have the View server-level information permission set to Allow and the View project-level information permission on the team project set to Allow. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.
