Remove Users from a Team Project Group

You can help improve the security of your team projects by removing users from team project groups when they no longer require access to the team project, or no longer need the level of permissions granted by membership in that group. For example, if a user's responsibilities in a team project change so that he or she no longer contributes to work being done on a project but only needs to view information about a project, you can remove that user from the Contributors group and add them to the Readers group.

Required Permissions

To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Project Administrators group or your Edit Project-Level Information permission must be set to Allow. For more information about permissions, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.

To remove users or groups from a team project group

1. In Team Explorer, select the team project that the group is in.

2. On the Team menu, point to Team Project Settings, and then click Group Membership.

3. In the Project Groups dialog box, select the group from which you want to remove users, and then click Properties.

4. In the Team Foundation Server Group Properties dialog box, in the Members tab, select the users or groups you want to remove.

5. Click Remove, and then click OK.
