Removing SourceSafe Integration from Visual Studio 2008 -


A question was recently asked. I need to do this with Visual Studio 2008.

Our team uses subversion and I have installed Ankh SSVN, Duplication Plug-in for VS 2008 (some other members of the team have used Visual SVN) I think SourceSafe When the option is an integrated source control tool, "Insert" - Reset for the source control plug-in in the Tools> Options> Source Control, VS2008 is reset every time it is turned off. It is very annoying and I am getting rid of the sossef.

I tried to install VS2008 with the intention of shutting down the SourceSafe plug-in (effectively uninstalling), but there is no substitute for this.

The Visual Studio stores source control preferences in the solution and project files. To switch providers, you must first "unbind" the old provider.

  • Change the file> source control> source control, select the solution and all project files, and click on "Unbind."
  • Save the solution
  • You can then change the provider with Tools> Options> Source Control.

The hand editing of .sln and .proj files also works, but it is not recommended at all.
