TFSDeleteProject
Use TFSDeleteProject to delete a team project from Team System when the project is no longer needed on the Team Foundation Server.
When you run TFSDeleteProject, the system places the source control data in a deleted state in the operational store. It does not actually remove the data from the database, nor does it reclaim the disk space. Also, the system does not remove the warehouse data originating from the team project.
You can find the TFSDeleteProject command-line utility in <drive >\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE on Team Explorer client computer.
Required Permissions
To use the TFSDeleteProject command, you must be a member of the Team Foundation Administrators security group or the Project Administrators security group. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions and Team Foundation Server Default Groups, Permissions, and Roles.
