Remove a File Type Associated with Team Foundation Version Control

File type definitions let you customize the way the version control system handles files that have specific extensions. By defining a file type, you control whether files that have a particular extension can have internal keywords expanded during a check-in, and whether multiple users can modify a specific file in parallel. For information about adding file type associations to version control, see Add File Type Association with Team Foundation Version Control. The following procedure demonstrates how to remove a file type extension associated with version control.

Required Permissions

To remove a file type association, you must have the Edit server-level information permission set to Allow. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.
